Description

Engineered wood I-joists are designed to eliminate problems that occur with conventional wood joists. Giving a builder the advantage of great strength in relation to size and weight, the I-joist carries heavy loads with less lumber than a dimensional solid wood joist.

I-joists help eliminate  problems that come with using solid lumber as joists, they are less likely to bow, crown, twist, cup, check or split as would a dimensional piece of lumber. Additionally I-joists’ dimensional soundness and little or no shrinkage help eliminate squeaky floors.
