They were ripped (cut lengthways) to narrow them. Typical decking here for treated pine is H3 90 mm x 22 mm with a ripple on one face. The ripple faces DOWN to vent the joint. People are starting to use composites. Some composites are ok, some are really ****. Building and maintaining hardwood decking is a pain I avoid. Built plenty of treated pine decks and I then paint them.
Ripped them down to 55 for the chair with lots of narrow slats. The older chairs with berries range from about 100-135mm wide.
