We’ve updated our descriptions on our timber, for example…
TANALISED & REGULARISED C16 Timber 47x100mm UC3 – 3.6m
TANALISED & REGULARISED C24 Timber 47x225mm UC2 – 4.8m
INCISED FENCE POST 100x100x3000mm GREEN TREATED UC4
but what does the UC2/UC3/UC4 mean?
UC2 – Use Class 2 is for end uses where wood is used indoors, above ground and within the building envelope, but with an occasional risk of wetting (from plumbing leaks for example).
UC3 – Use Class 3 is for end uses where wood is used outdoors NOT in contact with the ground.
UC4 – Use Class 4 is for end uses where wood is in contact with or very close to the ground and frequently wet.
We’ve also added these data sheets if you’d like further information…
