Applications

This versatile C24 treated timber is perfectly suited for a wide array of structural building applications. It is commonly used for heavy-duty floor joists and trimmers, robust roof rafters and ceiling joists, and stud walls in timber frame construction. Its enhanced durability also makes it an excellent choice for external projects such as decking subframes, garden buildings, and raised beds where exposure to weather is a factor, provided it is not in direct ground contact.
