Something to be aware of...rain water will remain on the surface of a composite deck longer than on natural wood.

I used TimberTech composite decking with raised grain that has the look of natural wood. And yes, joists on 12" centers for stability. Makes the deck feel very solid when walking on it...like walking on concrete.

Not my deck, but this is what I used ↓
