I put floors in trailers for years. Welded the strap on after boards were laid down.

[@jeremyw9098]

My old man had a removable strap that he used grade 8 bolts to hold it on, held up like a champ

[@chuckgeary6844]

makes more sense to me the way you do it

[@ctdieselnut]

Unless you're redoing an old one. Other comments are saying they cut out a notch of metal and welded it back in after. When i did mine, i just cut the last 2 planks so they would fall in with one end fully seated into the pocket on one end, then slid them back half the depth of each end's pocket so they were in both 1/2 way. Screwed one 2x4 across the floor underneath to keep them in place, caught in both ends. Easy, no problem since.

[@jennyjansen754]

That works when it is new. But when it is time to replace them!

[@arnoldjohnson3317]

@@jennyjansen754 Replacing rotted floors you cut off the strap since it should have been welded down with short welds. Just replace the strap or reuse it. Never waste your time bowing boards in. Tung and groove floors you pop them in from the middle. Built horse and stock trailers for years.

The screw thread is believed to have been invented around 400 BCE, by Archytas of Tarentum, a Greek philosopher sometimes called “the father of mechanics.”

You also use Lug Bolts instead of studs for mounting wheels so people can easily ruin their entire overengineered, expensive hub assembly by simply rotating tires.

[@4Core100]

If you were truly german you would appreciate this screwless design.

[@patrickd6450]

I like my way a lot better. Cut a slot out of the metal. Lay the boards in and slide them over. Weld the piece back in. Done

[@n.w.owhoknowstheshadowknow58]

Easier to cut a slot and cover it once woods in with a stainless name tag of the deceased who chose this as alternative method

[@jhayward1940]

This is how you do it.

[@adamgregory6482]

Yep this is the recommended method. Took less than 20 minutes to replace 2 deck boards on my 16ft trailer. Treated lumber from the box store is so sloppy wet with chemicals that my small 10 year old son was heavy enough to bend the 2x8 into position. I don’t know if this method works with shorter boards or dry wood. But it was very safe and easy with 16ft.

[@scottdelaney98]

I've done it twice. Wet treated lumber bends easy and it isn't going to come flying out and kill you. But you do have to be careful where you put your fingers. 😮

[@jlkerr98]

If you look on trailers, the front angle iron is smaller than the rear, you cut the board so when fitted all the way to the rear, it barely clears the front. From there you slide it forward. Both lips will cover the wood, then screw it down on the cross braces. No bending, no cutting or welding metal, slips right in.

I've only seen one or two trailer manufacturers that bolt the strip down, most use short welds that have to be cut, then the smarter ones drill a few holes and re install with bolts.

[@jasongoss8400]

For sure. You just bolt the strap down. This is not how any manufacturer does it.

@@snarecat3441 don't need to bow any but the last deck-board(they have room for one more here, looks like), which should be the middle, not on either side. The boards should get dropped in at an angle, and then straightened into position. And the last board shouldn't have to bend that much, either. 4-5" bend at the most, otherwise, thinner pine decking (which that looks like) might snap. And if those deck-boards snap under tension, anybody standing too close is going to the hospital to get several 3-6" splinters removed from them. Better hope you wore your safety glasses

You know, this could have been done way easier if the boards were soaked in ammonia first. When wood absorbs ammonia it becomes very flexible and slightly rubbery. You can bend it into almost any shape, and then when the ammonia evaporates you have normal wood again. That would have been way easier to do if they would have done it that way.
