The durability of a wooden terrace depends both on a correct choice of raw material, and on attention to the construction details. In general, the direct contact of the wood with the foundations should always be avoided, just as it is fundamental to keep some
distance between the planks and battens, in order to guarantee ventilation and avoid
the risk of stagnant water and the consequent and rapid deterioration of the terrace.
It is also important to use suitable fasteners that enable the structure to follow the
natural movements of the wood.
