ABSTRACT:
A water shield, reinforcing device for insertion over a top edge of a joist member and useful for supporting a wood deck or other outdoor structure which may be exposed to water. The device includes an elongate channel of rectangular cross section which has a composition of sufficiently high modulus of elasticity to provide substantial inflexibility to the device. The width of the channel approximately corresponds to the width of the joist member and the height dimension is sufficient, in combination with the modulus of elasticity, to provide substantial inflexibility to the device. The length of the channel is coextensive and continuous with the length of the joist member and includes diverging wing members coupled at bottom ends and along the length of the elongate channel to direct water away from the joist member.
