Improved tiling system for decking
A tiling system for forming or covering a deck comprises a plurality of lightweight tiles 100 and a like plurality of underlay units 200 to be secured underneath the tiles. Teeth 206 extend vertically from one of each underlay unit and each tile to be received in recesses in corresponding recesses of the other of each underlay unit and each tile so as to locate each said tile centrally on an underlay unit. Each tile is of lateral extent less that the lateral extent of the corresponding underlay unit, and as such the tiles have edges that are mutually spaced apart. The spacing between the tiles permits them to expand in hot weather without lifting or tenting. The system may include a supporting structure that comprises vertically adjustable pedestals. Also claimed is a tile which comprises an undersurface formed with a plurality of ribs configured to receive spurs on the teeth of an underlay unit. Decking formed from the tiling system, and a method of making a deck, include underlay units that are secured to a substructure.
