Radiata pine is kiln dried to a maximum 15% moisture content and is either gauged four sides or rougher headed four sides to a consistent finished size. The timber is either visually graded to AS2858 or mechanically graded to AS1791. Typical uses are for framing, roof trusses, floor joists, lintels etc. or any other internal structural application. Can also be H2 treated for borer/termite attack and decay.
