Which CLS timber can you order in Bristol?

  • Graded CLSC16 or C24 graded CLS for loadbearing studwork where specified.

Picking the right product

Loadbearing walls

If the wall carries load it needs graded timber to a design. Plain CLS is not automatically structural.

Which size?

38 × 63 mm suits most partitions up to standard ceiling heights. 38 × 89 mm gives stiffer, taller walls and more room for insulation.

Delivery to Bristol: what helps

CLS travels in bundles alongside plasterboard and is easy to hand off at the kerb. Bristol is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • In summer Bristol gets around 16h 38m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.

Estimating your CLS timber

A 2.4 m partition 2.4 m high at 400 mm centres takes 7 CLS studs, 4.8 m of head and sole plate and a row of noggins, then boarding on both sides. Work out the boards too
