Specifying structural timber - Watford IHS BRE 2014 - 8p. ill. 30cm. - BRE Digest DG 416 .
Timber which is used to sustain loads in buildings is said to be 'structural'. It includes joists which support ceilings, floors and flat roofs, and the rafters and purlins of traditionally built pitched roofs. If timber is correctly specified at the design stage, it is more likely to be supplied and fitted without trouble and will give better service throughout the life of the building. This Digest discusses those aspects which should be considered in a specification for structural timber and provides a guide to the fuller information contained in relevant British Standards, European CEN Standards, and other documents, listed in the digest.
