    Default Compressed Fibre Cement flooring for deck

    was wondering if anyone had any tips on laying FC over treated pine joists. Will be 1800 x 1200 x 15mm. Aim to lay accross the joists. Aim to tile once laid.
    So far I know -
    1. Leave a 5mm gap between sheets
    2. Use galv. 50mm screws
    3. poly between joints.

    Qs. 1. do I need to lay anything over joists first?
    2. should I put up the newel posts before laying?
    3. How long can they lay in the weather before laying tiles?
    4. at what stage should I waterproof between deck and walls?
    5. do just lay tiling cement straight on FC or do I need to do something else?

    would appreciate any help or a point to a good site.
