FAQs

What is the lifespan of these joists?

With proper installation and care, these joists can last for many years due to the pressure treatment.

Can I paint or stain these joists?

Yes, you can paint or stain these joists. However, allow the wood to dry completely before applying any finish.

Are these joists suitable for ground contact?

While the pressure treatment offers protection against rot and decay, direct ground contact should be minimized. Consider using appropriate ground contact rated materials or methods.

What is CLS?

CLS stands for Canadian Lumber Standard, a common size of timber.

How do I cut these joists?

Use a saw appropriate for cutting softwood. A circular saw or hand saw can be used.

What type of fasteners should I use?

Use screws or nails specifically designed for outdoor wood projects. Stainless steel or coated fasteners are recommended to prevent corrosion.

What is the weight of each joist?

Each joist weighs approximately 5 kg.

Troubleshooting

Joists appear warped or twisted.

Carefully select the straightest joists for your project and consider using additional supports or bracing if necessary. Ensure proper storage before use.

Joists are not level after installation.

Use shims to level the joists before attaching the decking boards.

Fasteners are not holding securely.

Ensure you are using the correct type and size of fasteners for the joists. Pre-drilling may be necessary to prevent splitting.
