How to design teak outdoor chairs for optimal rainwater runoff?
Designing teak outdoor chairs for optimal rainwater runoff ensures longevity and comfort. Start by incorporating a slight slope in the seat (5-10 degrees) to allow water to flow off naturally. Add small grooves or channels on the seat surface to direct water away. Use high-quality teak wood, known for its water-resistant properties, and avoid flat surfaces where water can pool. Elevate the chair legs slightly to prevent moisture absorption from the ground. Regular maintenance, like applying teak oil, will further protect the wood. These design choices keep your outdoor furniture dry, durable, and stylish.
