Begin by placing the two outer frame on a flat surface
close to where you intend to locate your bridge. Arrange
them as shown with the blocks innermost and the end
frames locate in between the ends, countersinks facing
out before fixing each corner in place with a pair of
70mm coach screws.
Place the centre rails between the outer frames, lining up
the ends with the central countersinks of the end frames
and fix in place with two 70mm coachscrews into each end.

Step 10
Lay out the decking slats across the base framework and
align the 2 end pieces with the ends of the frame. Now
space the intermediate slats apart evenly (typically 5-
10mm) and secure every slat with 2 woodscrews through
each end into the frame. Run a further line of screws
down the centre, omitting one at each end where the
frame finishes short.
Position a handrail, laying it across the post tops so that it
is centred and the markings are on the underside. Line the
rail up with the mark against the post…
Step 11
Optional
And secure the rail to each post with a pair of
woodscrews driven down into the post. Add the second
rail in the same manner.
Your Brooke bridge is now complete.
