REJECT TIMBER-We regularly check our timber treatment and grade and even if if that timber is branded to Australian Standards but which were not up to our standard it will be rejected. Will other suppliers do the same?? Do other suppliers know when timber is not treated / Can they test it ? Do they care ?
Buying timber at Auction ?? Auction sites regularly sell reject timber. Even if branded or advertised as treated, Auction timber may have been rejected because of treatment quality and may fail.
WHAT TREATMENT? Dont just ask for TREATED PINE from your builder or "dont know" Hardware store. If you use Treated Timber outdoors (even for a handrail under an awning) you need H3 (or H4 ) treatment. If it is only H2 treated IT WILL ROT even if painted. H2 (or T2) is treated for Termites ONLY.
F7 or F5 (MGP10)?? If using timber for structural purposes (Decks etc) you should use caution if using F5 branded timber. You may find that F5 and MGP 10 timber will not satisfy the same span as F7 and you may need to use a larger size. Particularly check if the timber is from New Zealand. We consider NZ timber to be inferior to our Australian timber.
Unless clearly indicated by us, all the log factory rougher headed/laser cut timber is the higher F7.
