I am constantly in need of information on how to fasten beams or other items together. I do have a Simpson catalog but seem to always misplace the book. Here is a link I have found helpful on the Simpson Strong-ties website.

I see people do it everyday. They spend thousands of dollars on an expensive composite deck and go to cheapville on the screws. Please, please, pleaseeeeee do not try to save money on this very important part of your new deck.

Here is a link to GRK. I strongly recommend the stainless steel screws. Why buy a deck that will outlast the fasteners?
