ABSTRACT:
A deck structure utilizing recycled plastic lumber decking planks which slide onto a rigid frame is provided. The frame includes supporting members having protruding "T"-shaped connectors which selectively fit into preformed grooves on the underside of the plastic planks. The manner in which the planks are secured to the frame allows for the expansion and contraction of the individual plank lengths due to temperature variations. In addition, brackets are provided which fasten railings and the like to the rigid frame.
