That is why I set up the test. I walked on an old composite deck that had 16" centers and even though that is to code and recommendation, it felt bouncy to me. It didn't bother me but I can see where 12" max would be advised on softer wood or composite. Not sure if the capped composites or PVC are the same or not. Too much $$$ for those so never got into it.
I researched for a months before I started. I will be rebuilding this deck ONCE, EVER! If something happens and it needs to be rebuilt, the house will be sold first
