228 x 38mm Timber for Building and Construction
The Timber 228 x 38mm x 3.0m combines a generous 228mm width with a 38mm thickness, providing a substantial timber profile for various construction and carpentry applications.
Its 3.0m length provides good coverage for medium to larger projects while allowing the timber to be cut into shorter sections according to individual project requirements.
The timber can be worked using appropriate woodworking tools and can be cut, drilled, nailed, screwed, or connected using compatible timber brackets and fasteners.
Why Choose Timber 228 x 38mm x 3.0m S5?
The larger 228 x 38mm profile provides more material and surface area than narrower timber sections, making it useful for projects where a broader timber member is required.

Installation Guidelines
Measure and mark the timber accurately before cutting. Use suitable woodworking equipment and ensure all cuts are clean and correctly positioned.
Select appropriate nails, screws, bolts, brackets, or timber connectors according to the intended application. Ensure the timber is correctly aligned and adequately supported before permanently fastening it.
For structural or load-bearing applications, the timber grade, span, dimensions, treatment requirements, fixing method, and installation should comply with the approved building or engineering design.
Storage and Handling
Store the timber horizontally in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated location. Keep it properly supported and raised off the ground to help minimise unnecessary moisture exposure and distortion.
As timber is a natural material, variations in grain, knots, colour, and appearance may occur between individual pieces.
