Time travel – from dinosaurs to the cycle of life
Terrace system with concrete kerbstone
The concrete edge stone offers you the option of designing the superstructure as an open or closed deck. The two construction variants essentially differ in the construction heights, which are realised by our megawood® construction beams 80 x 60 mm and 40 x 60 mm.
The megawood® construction plan with concrete kerbstone tells you exactly how this works.
Concrete kerbstone
Basis construction
Basis construction
with construction beams 40 x 60 mm
- Gravel formation level with a 2 % gradient
(in longitudinal direction of the plank)
- Example with 21 mm floorboards
- Example with 21 mm floorboards
Concrete kerbstone
Elevated construction
Elevated construction
with construction beams 80 x 60 mm
- Gravel formation level with a 2 % gradient
(in longitudinal direction of the plank)
- Example with 21 mm floorboards
- Example with 21 mm floorboards
Closed gap
With groove strip/P5 gap profile.
A min. 2 % longitudinal gradient of the board is compulsory with an elevated design of min. 161 mm, as is an adequate ventilation from below and the rear respectively (e.g. use of ventilation grilles, keeping distance from rhombus profiles).

Laying on mitres for L, U, O-shaped terraces
- Double sub-construction along the 45°section.
- Insert sealing tape into the mitre joint on both sides.
- Only push the floorboard into the mitre profile by 10 mm in order to ensure the expansion.
- On the diagonal or mitre cut, short pieces of plank (those that can be attached to the substructure with fewer than three clips or clips) are screwed to the construction beam from above. (Screw M6 x 40 mm)

Construction at floor level with ventilation grille
- The terrace deck is constructed at ground level and creates a level circumferential terrain edge.
- A distance of at least 20 mm between the boards and raised, fixed components must always be maintained.
- The ground level deck can be created with a closed joint as long as the compulsory construction height is min. 161 mm, a compulsory min. 2 % gradient is adhered to and circumferential ventilation grilles or other constructional measures are ensured in order to provide an adequate under ventilation or back ventilation.
- Only implement a level floorboard structure with a 5 mm in conjunction with a ventilation
- Use of the ventilation grid (also with „placed-on“ deck or in the event of a closed gap) in order to improve the air circulation beneath the terrace and to increase the service life of the entire deck.

Laying as a deck with herringbone pattern
- A double sub-construction is to be provided at all butt joints.
- The Distanz Fix is positioned between the double construction beam in order to create the clearance of the butt joints.
- When using the Distanz Fix, each of the construction beams are to be provided with a retaining tape next to the Distanz Fix, it is not to be placed on the tape.

Cross bracing structure
- Prerequisite for the cross bracing is a load-bearing substrate (concrete, concrete kerbstone). The structure is built on 20 mm high rubber pads, which are installed at the crossing points of the construction beams to ensure the minimum distance.
- The cross bracing must be securely connected to the substrate.
- The general planning principles of megawood® construction plan terrace system apply.
