Abstract: A clip for attaching a deck plank to a surface, comprises an elongated strip having bottom and top opposing surfaces with a leg extending up from said top surface between its ends. The leg has at least one flange projecting out at a location spaced from the top surface. The flange has an underside facing the top surface for engaging and mating with a ledge of a deck plank. The mating deck plank readily attaches to the clip when force is applied generally from the upper surface down on the plank. The deck plank has a bottom recess with an internal ledge or ledges that mates with and snaps onto the flange or flanges of the clip.

Abstract: A deck plank readily attaches to an engagement clip when force is applied generally from the upper surface down on the plank. When a plurality of clips are attached to underlying surface, and a plurality of deck planks are oriented to the clips and urged into engagement, a secure deck structure is provided. The deck plank surface extends laterally beyond the outside vertical supporting panel (32) and turns downward to form downward facing supporting leg (45). The opposite side of the deck plank between outside supporting leg (35) and outside vertical supporting panel (34) forms a water resistant cavity that does not get penetrated by fasteners due to the underside clipping means. The deck plank and clipping system allows the individual repair of deck planks without removing the adjacent deck planks.
