Description

This C24 Treated Carcassing Timber is a strength-graded structural softwood, pressure-treated with preservative to resist rot, fungal decay, and insect attack. The 47×200mm (2×8) regularised profile and kiln-dried condition make it stable and straightforward to work with on site. Supplied at 4.8 metres length, it suits floor joists, roof battens, stud walls, decking frames, and general structural applications.

C24 timber offers superior load-bearing performance and fewer defects than lower grades. The planed finish provides a clean appearance and easier handling during installation. Meets current BS EN standards for structural timberwork and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor projects where durability and reliability are essential.

Regularised edges ensure consistent dimensions across the batch, reducing waste and simplifying calculations on site. Kiln-dried to a stable moisture content, the timber resists warping and twisting during storage and installation. The pressure-treatment penetrates throughout, providing long-term protection in exposed or damp conditions.
