What is 3x2 Treated Timber in mm?

"3x2" relates to the joist size in inches which equates to 47 x 75mm. However, our 3x2  timber joists are regularised to ensure a smooth and consistent size along the entire length of the timber, which means the "finished" size is slightly smaller, approximately 45mm x 70mm.

This small size difference in the majority of projects will make no material difference, and is typical across 47x75mm (3x2) timber joists.

What are 3x2 C16 Treated Timber Joists Used For?

Often utilised in stud walling and partitioning, C16 timber boasts exceptional strength, making it well-suited for interior construction tasks. While it's not recommended for supporting the building's structure, its treatment extends its suitability to various outdoor applications like decking, fencing, sheds, pergolas, and various other outdoor structures.

What Does Kiln Dried Mean?

Kiln-dried timber is a popular choice for construction due to its numerous advantages over air-dried wood. The controlled environment within a kiln enables quicker and more uniform drying, minimising the typical risks of warping, cracking, and other imperfections often found in air-dried methods. This consistent moisture content significantly improves wood stability and strength.

What Lengths Does 3x2 C16 Timber Joist Come in?

We offer 3x2 timber in various lengths: 2.4m, 3m, 3.6m and 4.8m. Although we strive to maintain stock across all sizes for efficient delivery, there might be intermittent delays or shortages in certain lengths. Should this occur, we may substitute longer lengths to ensure your order arrives promptly.

What Does C16 Stand For?

Timber is graded based on strength and quality, with C16 and C24 being among the most common grades in the UK. These grades indicate how well the timber can handle loads, particularly under bending stress.

C16 and C24 are primarily used in construction for structural purposes but serve different needs. C24 is ideal for tasks needing greater load-bearing capacity, like expansive spans or heavier loads.

However C16, while slightly less robust than C24, remains sturdy and widely used in wall and roofing applications with less stringent load requirements. Both grades offer reliability, but the choice between them depends on the specific structural demands of the project.

Do I Need Treated 3x2 Timber Joists?

Our 3x2 Treated Timber is suitable for both internal and external use. However, if your project might face moisture or pest challenges, treated timber is particularly suited to outdoor projects such as decking, roofing, and similar applications due to its enhanced resistance to moisture and pests.
