A floor 4.8 m wide with joists spanning 3.9 m at 400 mm centres needs 13 joists, plus trimmers and noggins. The section and grade, such as 47 × 200 mm C24, come from span tables or your engineer; send us the timber schedule and we will price it.

Delivering carcassing timber in Dunbartonshire

Timber is delivered in packs or bundles on a flatbed; long lengths need clear access along the drop point. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Dunbartonshire.

  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

Treated Carcassing Timber: choosing well

C16 or C24?

C24 is stronger and stiffer, so it can span further or use a smaller section. Span tables and your structural drawings decide which grade and size you need.

Cut ends

Treat any cut ends with a suitable end-grain preservative, especially on external work.

In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.
