1. Engineered I-joists – Foremost offers you the best in engineerd I-joists. Depending on your project we can design a floor or roof system that replaces conventional lumber applications with greater strength and higher quality. Their strength and long length provides open and spacious floor plans. Dimensional stable and predictable performance I-joists are lightweight and easy to cut with precut knockout holes. Let us show you the benefits of Silent Floor system from Weyerhaeuser. Being a Connections Dealer we offer a variety of I-joists including TJI-110, 210, 230, 360, and 560 joists. |
2. Timberstrand - Laminated strand lumber (LSL - 1.55E) is dimensional lumber that is compossed of laminated strands of lumber into beams, headers, and wall studs. Timberstrand products offer the right price point for many applications the right product for superior strength, straightness, and stability.
Timberstrand LSL beams and headers (1.55 E) are ideal for window and door openings, girders, and flush beams. Timberstrand LSL studs provide a straight and strong stud in tall walls.
For longer spans and openings LVL (1.9) and Parallam (2.0 E) beams and columns provide the perfect product. The right choice for open floor plans, exposed beams, cantilevers and multi-span applications. |
3. LVL Beams and Headers - Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL - 1.9E) is dimensional lumber that is composed of thin layers or veneers of wood glued together and sawn to make dimensional lumber in sizes ranging from 2x4's to 4x18's or larger by special order. This class of lumber is used as studs, headers, rim joists, beams, columns, and girders in floor framing and as rafters in roof framing. LVL can be manufactured in sizes to meet almost all structural needs. Because this is an engineered and manufactured product there is little or no dimensional difference or loading capacity between pieces. If LVL is stored and handled properly it will be straight and true without the crowns and bows found in large dimensional natural lumber. |
4. Parallam Beams and Columns - Parallam (PSL - 2.0 E) columns are strong and consistent. Combine their great load capacity with the strength of Parallam PSL beams, and longer spans and open floor plans are possible. Parallam PSL columns can be stained or finished for a handsome look in exposed applications. They are an efficient use of wood resources and minimize waste. |
