WPC Decking For Maldives Resorts & Boardwalks | Vocana

Vocana project guidance prefers SS316 stainless-steel screws and metal clips for high-salt coastal exposure. Aluminum joists are also a strong subframe option. Final hardware selection must match structural loads, connections and the project corrosion strategy.

Use the actual load and span requirement rather than the label alone. Solid profiles suit many concentrated commercial loads, while engineered hollow boards can serve lighter zones when their section and support spacing are verified.

The wider gap supports drainage, thermal movement and localized board replacement. It is practical on high-use exterior decks where operators need damaged boards serviced without dismantling a large section of walkway.

Provide the deck plan, board direction, finished levels, support concept, expected pedestrian and service loads, wet zones, edge and stair details, preferred finish and any requirement for access beneath the deck.

Vocana guidance recommends roughly 3%–5% additional material for site variance and replacement stock. Keep spare boards identified by profile and finish so facility teams can make local repairs without relying on a later color-matched batch.
