Decking components for use with decking boards, decking systems and methods for the installation of decking boards
A decking system having support components e.g. structural supporting rails 200 spaced apart in a longitudinal direction by a span distance, decking boards 100 supported on the rails extending perpendicularly to the rails and arranged adjacent each other in a transverse direction, perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, the system including board-to-board support components or connectors 20 located at a longitudinal position intermediate the rails, sandwiched between and connecting adjacent decking boards to each other in the transverse direction. The board-to-board connectors join adjacent decking boards together mid span between supporting rails, such that adjacent decking boards do not flex independently when loaded between supporting rails, minimising bending of individual boards by sharing loads between boards through the connectors. Decking boards may have transversely extending edge lips 120,122 on their underside which interference fit into matching cooperating grooves or slots 22,24 in the connector such that in use the top surface of the connector is below the upper surface of decking and has limited visibility.
