Light Structural Lumber

Light structural lumber is a type of timber that is used primarily in the construction of buildings and other structures. It is commonly used in light framing applications due to its strength, ease of installation, and cost-effectiveness. Light structural lumber is also popular for its versatility, allowing it to be used in a variety of different applications.

Heavy Timber

Heavy timber lumber is a type of construction material used in the construction of buildings, decks, and structures. It is a type of timber that is thick and strong enough to bear large amounts of weight. This type of lumber is created by taking thicker pieces of wood and bonding them together with metal or nails and is primarily used in commercial and industrial projects.

Finger-Jointed Lumber

Finger-jointed lumber is a type of engineered lumber that is created by joining short pieces of wood together to form longer lengths of lumber. This type of lumber is used in a wide variety of applications, including furniture, cabinetry, and other structures. It is a popular choice because of its strength, stability, and affordability.
