If you have an existing deck, I would call a Proffessional Engineer (PE) to calculate it's load capacity.

Local town or city building inspector would/should come out for free.

Sorry, don't know of a site.

When I built my hot tub deck I used the following site for information.  This site has an incredible amount of information for deck building and to gain full access, it's only $13 (one 2 X 8 X 10) for a year!  Hope this helps and good luck ...
