Structural and Framing Timber

Pine Framing 

MGP10 Structural Machine Grade Pine for framing

Pine framing has been used by Australian builders for decades, and is preferred over other structural materials due to its great strength, cost-effectiveness, ease of use and flexibility. Pine framing today is sourced from renewable, sustainably managed, Australian Forestry Standard (AFS) or Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified plantations. Structural pine framing is common throughout residential and commercial building. Through technological advances, machine grading guarantees every stick has been quality assured, graded and tested to the Australian Standards. Structural pine is available in both MGP10 and MGP12 stress grades.

Applications:
Framing & General Construction

hySPAN LVL

Structural laminated veneer lumber (LVL)

hySPAN is structural laminated veneer lumber (LVL) which has been manufactured in Australasia from renewable plantation timber, which is rotary peeled, dried and laminated together in accordance with AS/NZS 4357. A Type ‘A’ (marine) bond is used to adhere the veneers together, creating continuous long lengths.

Commonly used as rafters, floor joists, beams and lintels, hySPAN LVL has been engineered to provide straight and true sections, long continuous lengths, termite protection available, all manufactured from sustainable forests.

Applications:
Rafters, Floor Joists, Beams & Lintels

Treated Pine

Treated Pine R/H and DAR

Treated pine, is treated with CCA (Chromated Copper Arsenate) to protect the material against termite and fungal attack. This makes it a very durable and cost-effective material, perfect for load bearing situations where protection is required from the outdoor elements. Just like framing pine, treated pine is sourced and manufactured from environmentally sustainable plantation pine. Treated pine is kiln dried and seasoned, delivering a consistent sizing and dimensional stability.

Applications:
Pergolas, External Stairs & Decking Bearers & Joists
