Getting CLS timber onto your Forres site
CLS travels in bundles alongside plasterboard and is easy to hand off at the kerb. Forres is in an area where deliveries are priced individually because of the distance and access, so we quote each order separately.
- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
- With roughly 6h 33m of daylight in Forres around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
Before you order CLS timber
Loadbearing walls
If the wall carries load it needs graded timber to a design. Plain CLS is not automatically structural.
Stud spacing
Studs are usually set at 400 mm or 600 mm centres to suit 1200 mm wide plasterboard.
A quick quantity check
A 5.4 m partition 2.4 m high at 400 mm centres takes 15 CLS studs, 10.8 m of head and sole plate and a row of noggins, then boarding on both sides. Work out the boards too
