Cedar Timber Characteristics
|
Cedar wood produces long lengths of timber
with true, straight grain. Cedar's fine, straight grain and uniform
texture make it easy to cut, saw and nail with common tools. Cedar boards is highly resistant to splitting caused by fasteners. It is free
from pitch and its heartwood has natural decay resistance. Its low
density gives it an insulation value superior to most other species.
Cedar Wood is Light weight, easy to work, easy to finish, possessing outstanding
dimensional stability.

sapwood that is light brown or cream in color. The heartwood is
typically a red to deep reddish brown that often has accentuating
tights knots.

Cedar Timber Preservation
|
Western Red Cedar wood is one of the few
wood species that are naturally at home in the outdoors. This wood is classified as a durable wood by the building codes across North
America, which permits the use of its heartwood in exterior
applications without preservative treatments. The heartwood contains
extractives that are toxic to decay causing fungi. |
