Is this drill strong enough for deck building?

No. It is a 12V compact drill meant for screws and small holes. For deck boards and lag screws, use an 18V or 20V drill.

Can it drill into masonry?

Only with a masonry bit in soft brick or mortar, and slowly. It has no hammer mode, so it is not a substitute for a hammer drill.

The kit includes the drill, one 12V Max battery and a charger. Bits and a case are not included.

No. The chuck is 3/8 in, so it takes bits with a 3/8-in or smaller shank.

The brushless DCD701 is shorter, runs cooler and gets more work per charge. It costs more than the brushed model but lasts longer.

Yes. The short body and clutch make it easy to drive screws inside cabinets and overhead without stripping them.
