I simply wanted to save on wood for structure while rebuilding my balcony patio, so there is the result. Good as well to use dirty pallets wich cannot be used directly as they are too oily from mechanical parts!

Duanne Riess could work out cheaper for you :-)
Shane Kipling this is what i was on about for youe decking
Quentin Lec, sa c’est une bonne fondation de terrasse, avec n’importe quelle longueur de planche en plus
Cest clair qu’il y a pas de soucis là du coup
j’ai fais la meme chose !!!!
Great idea
Sak len ze ono je to pekne … ale za tie love sa da rozmyslat aj inak ..
Ako. Ono to ide ale tak palety same o sebe su dost draheee a tie masiny (vrrtacky) su americke nesmrtelne stroje
pas possible de faire ça chez nous à la Guadeloupe sans un traitement de choc vu toutes les vermines(termites etc.) maisvu comme cela , respect c du grand art!!!
Good idea in theory. I don’t think it would meet to our building code
It’s about using something that has no purpose. Reusable sourced timber thats free. If it rots so what. Bet half of the people who have a negative opinion. Couldn’t even put a shelf up. Dick heads.
good idea
this will collapse after a winter or 2 :-( stop and re design
For those of us that don’t build for a living, G.A.N why would it collapse exactly? Doe it need support in other areas? From a “Non-builder” viewpojnt, this looks great.
Water will penetrate and weaken the timber and lead to rot as the timber is not suited for this purpose, flat surfaces for water to collect. Also the pallets are not built to support any weights eg. you could step heavily or jump on the slats and feel it bend or worse snap in half. the pallet back right of the pic is the weakest out them all, not very strong at all. hope this makes sense.
rain water would sit between the decking planks and the pallet timber and rot both…..
Can the wood be sealed with say linseed oil or some other type of sealant to prevent this?
and how are you going to treat the pallets every year once the decking is screwed down? you’d be better off building the framework from properly treated timber beams.remember that pallets are throw-away items made from the worst wood……
