Deck Software


Here is some deck software to check out guys. Its not really like decktools or anything like that. BUT it does print out plans with engineering on them. And you can figure all your loading and stuff. My local building department uses this to check deck plans with. plan analyst

Re: Deck Software


Hmmm, worked that time. Maybe I made a typo when I entered plananalyst.com the first try.

I must say it does look pretty good. The $95 price tag look pretty reasonable too. I'm going to try the Sierra one I got in the winter for the first few this year and take it from there. If I run into problems with any of the drawings I'll switch to this one.

Thanks for the link Robert!
