ABSTRACT:
A suspended deck system using prefabricated deck block modules incorporates a prefabricated suspended platform. The platform comprises joist members within a frame, the joists being spaced in accordance with the size of the deck blocks, and having lateral cross braces suspended therebetween to complete the block support arrangement. Cross brace brackets are provided by means of which the cross braces are suspended from, and nailed to the platform joists, each bracket having an upstanding spacer member with an inturned toe, to serve as a corner locator for the respective deck block. The brackets may also incorporate upstanding prongs that penetrate and secure the deck blocks when located to the spacer members, and hammered down in impaled relation onto the prongs. The brackets also are provided with internal nailing guide chutes, for positioning and seating the securing nails when driven home, to anchor both bracket and cross brace to the flank of the joist.
