All
recycled plastic picnic tables that I've ever seen have had their planks bowed
downward from sun, user weight and gravity.

-----Original Message-----We are about to build a boardwalk using Trex (plastic wood). We hear that it needs more support and is not as forgiving as wood in adjusting to heaving ground. Anybody used the material for this use? Dianna Fallon, New Hampshire Conservation Commission
