DOUGLAS FIR
When architects and engineers look for the
best in structural lumber, their first choice
repeatedly is Douglas Fir. It is dimensionally
stable and universally recognized for its
superior strength-to-weight ration. It is truly
the ideal structural and general purpose wood
for framing lumber inresidental, light commercial,
multi-story and industrial construction. The
physical working properties, dimensional
stability and documented excellant performance
record against strong forces resulting from winds,
storms and earhtquakes, have given douglas
fir its reputation. They are additionally
valuable for their rustic beauty and excellant
"Heavy Timber" fire ratings in the model
building codes.
High Grade & Quarter Sawn mix -
our highest quality grade. Materials will have
little or no nail holes (which can be filled if needed)
Some knots, vertical tight grain with grain slightly
getting wider at edges. (not too wide though!)
Cabin Grade -
Knots and nail holes - distinctive grain
patterns, produced by the varying degrees of
spring and summer wood in the grain. The color
differences between the two range from
yellowish to reddish brown. Douglas Fir
flooring ages to a warm orange-brown color.
