AN ABUTMENT FOR A MODULAR DECKING SYSTEM

摘要

An abutment for use with a modular decking system that includes decking in the form of a plurality of treads, each tread being elongate and having a longitudinal axis, a topside, an underside and two ends having respective end surfaces, the underside of at least a first end of each tread including a tread coupling member. The abutment includes a tread receiving portion configured to receive the underside of the first end of each tread to thereby support the decking, the tread receiving portion including an abutment coupling member for engagement with the tread coupling member of each tread so as to prevent longitudinal movement of each received tread. The abutment also includes an upright margin configured such that the end surface of the first end of a received tread can lie closely adjacent thereto to provide a border for the decking.
