Frequently Asked Questions

I need C16 or C24 graded timber, what is it and do you stock it?

Timber must be graded if it is to be used in internal structural applications as stipulated by building regulations. Timber is graded to either C16 or C24. Here all the structural properties of the timber are quantified. Eg Species, Knot Size and Type, Slope of Grain, Tightness of grain, Compression Wood, Rot etc. C24 grade can only be achieved by imported timber. Homegrown timber from UK sawmills will make C16 only and so will have reduced span capability. At Bennetts Timber we stock C24 regularised timbers.

What does 'finished size' mean

This is the actual finished size that your timber will come in. For example 47mm x 100mm C24 graded regularised timber has a finished size of 45mm x 95mm and that is the actual size it will come in, always look for the finished size rather than the nominal size.

What does 'nominal' mean?

Nominal size is the actual size of timber that the board is machined out of, in other words the finished product will have a smaller finished size than the nominal size. For example 47mm x 100mm C24 regularised graded is the nominal size, the finished size is 45mm x 95mm or thereabouts.

What does CLS mean?

CLS stands for 'Canadian Lumber Standard'. CLS was originally manfactured in Canada for use in the building of timber framed houses, hence its name. Over the past few years CLS has become increasingly popular in the UK for use as framing for stud walls and internal partitions as it is relatively cheap and easy to use with regularised or curved edges. The UK version is usually manufactured from European or Scandanavian softwoods and is graded to C16.

What is regularised?

Although the sawing process is a lot more accurate than it was some years ago, by regularising the timber the end user can be sure that in whatever application, each piece will have consistent and "regular' size. It is also more visually appealing as it usually has curved edges, rather than straight.
