Product Overview
C24 strength-graded structural softwood, kiln-dried, regularised, and treated for demanding applications in floors, roofs, and primary beams.
200mm width in a 4.8m length provides beam-grade support in floors and roofs, while the 75mm thickness offers a broad bearing face for connectors and hangers, reducing bounce and flex over extended spans with minimal joints.
Features & Benefits
- Strength grading (C24): Higher density and stiffness than C16, suitable for demanding load-bearing roles.
- Factory applied preservative treatment: Protects timber in typical above-ground conditions when installed properly.
- Kiln-dried & regularised: Helps control shrinkage and ensures even sizing for accurate work.
- Eased edges: Safer handling and a cleaner finish with reduced splinter risk.
- Sawn face texture: Provides a stable key for membranes, adhesives, and coatings.
- Easy to work: Accepts nails, screws, bolts, and hangers; generous section helps avoid splitting near fixings.
- Length - 4.8m: Minimises joints and increases stability in long runs.
- 200mm width: Deep section with wide 75mm bearing face, maximising load capacity and connection strength.
- Section size - 75mm x 200mm (8" x 3"): Large-format carcassing section for heavy structural applications.
Please Note: Finished sizes may arrive slightly under nominal (around 2mm less in thickness and 5mm less in width). Colour and finish vary naturally. Seal all cut ends and notches with end-grain preservative. Confirm span suitability before use.
Applications
- Primary beams and trimmers: Wide 75mm face with deep 200mm section provides strong bearing and hanger capacity for heavier spans.
- Roof members: Suitable for rafters, purlins, and joists in wide-span or load-intensive roofs.
- Decking subframes: Forms durable ledgers and joists for high-traffic or expansive decking.
- Structural framing and lintels: Robust section where depth and width combine for strength-critical applications.
Installation Guidance
- Respect span limits: Only use within the limits of the specified grade.
- Use rated fixings/connectors: Exterior-grade, corrosion-resistant hangers/bolts compatible with treated timber.
- Re-seal all worked areas: End-grain treatment maintains protection.
Compliance & Performance
- Strength grading: C24 to BS EN 14081 / EN 338.
- Service conditions: Suitable for dry internal or covered external use (above ground).
