Soil type and its bearing capacity value determine post spacing. Based on total live and dead loads of 45 pounds per square foot, post spacing for a 12-foot wide deck would be 6 feet on center in average soil with a bearing capacity of 3,000 pounds per square foot. Spacing could be adjusted up or down depending on the soil’s bearing capacity value.
