Help.

A very good friend has asked for advice that I cannot answer. Maybe someone here knows a solution.

He wants to build a fairly small deck off the concrete apron of his inground pool for furniture, lounge chairs, etc. This "deck" will only be 6 to 12" off the ground to allow easy access from the pool. Really more like a platform directly over the ground.

I'm not sure if any wood, including ipe', will withstand the moisture that close to the ground. Thinking maybe some type of composite, but do not have a clue.

Any suggestions?
