Remember that we are speaking 3 different languages, Thai, English and the one that covers everything else. It is the one where there are no coresponding words in either language or the interpreter doesn't understand the question, to which the answer is usually "yes".
When the architect and I were talking about the deck, I was thinking 1 meter, (40") and he offered up 1 1/2. So I asked how and he said we would use the pre-stressed pieces. So our intent is to have the whole 5' cantilevered. If they are bracing back to the piers I have seen any indication yet.
But, as we say here, "let's go see"
