    Douglas Fir Band-Sawn - Product Info

    Factories, warehouse, mills, army depots, storage buildings, schools, mines, trestles, drydocks and all manner of other structures were built across the Western United States and Canada using strong, straight and beautiful Douglas Fir timbers. Trestlewood reclaims these beautiful, historic timbers and offers them to its customers for use as weathered timbers, resawn timbers, trusses and frames. You simply can't beat the beauty, stability and history of a frame or trusses built with timbers cut from reclaimed Douglas Fir.
    Douglas Fir Planed (S4S) Timbers are also available.

    GradingDouglas Fir resawn timbers can be graded (WLCB) upon request. Timbers are graded with exception taken for any holes. It is highly recommended that any timbers that are to be used in a structural application be graded. It is also recommended that standard size timbers be used whenever possible. Checking and holes (where metal has been removed) tend to be more pronounced in timbers wider and/or thicker than 12" than in standard size timbers.
    Appearance VariationDouglas Fir Resawn Timbers are often cut from stock coming from a variety of sources. As a result, timber characteristics can be expected to vary from piece to piece. Trestlewood believes that appearance variations (no two timbers exactly alike) are one of the selling points of this product line.

    Note: Please study specification sheets to familiarize yourself with product characteristics and their possible implications for your application.
