Lumber

Timber, also known as Lumber in North American English, is a type of wood that has

been processed into beams and planks, a stage in the process of wood production. Lumber is
mainly used for structural purposes but has many other uses as well. There are two main types of
lumber. It may be supplied either rough-sawn, or surfaced on one or more of its faces.
Besides pulpwood, rough lumber is the raw material for furniture-making and other items
requiring additional cutting and shaping. It is available in many species, usually hardwoods; but
it is also readily available in softwoods, such as white pine and red pine, because of their low
cost. Finished lumber is supplied in standard sizes, mostly for the construction industry –
primarily softwood, from coniferous species, including pine, fir and spruce (collectively spruce-
pine-fir), cedar, and hemlock, but also some hardwood, for high-grade flooring. It is more
commonly made from softwood than hardwoods, and 80% of lumber comes from softwood.

Girder
A girder is a support beam used in construction. It is the main horizontal support of a structure
which supports smaller beams. Girders often have an I-beam cross section composed of two
load-bearing flanges separated by a stabilizing web, but may also have a box shape, Z shape, or
other forms. A girder is commonly used to build bridges.

Floor Joist and T and G Flooring

A joist is a horizontal structural member used in framing to span an open space, often
between beams that subsequently transfer loads to vertical members. When incorporated into
a floor framing system, joists serve to provide stiffness to the subfloor sheathing, allowing it to
function as a horizontal diaphragm. Joists are often doubled or tripled, placed side by side, where
conditions warrant, such as where wall partitions require support.
Tongue and Groove is a method of fitting similar objects together, edge to edge, used mainly
with wood, in flooring, parquetry, paneling, and similar constructions. Tongue and groove joints
allow two flat pieces to be joined strongly together to make a single flat surface.
Before plywood became common, tongue and groove boards were also used
for sheathing buildings and to construct concrete formwork.
A strong joint, the tongue and groove joint is widely used for re-entrant angles. The effect of
wood shrinkage is concealed when the joint is beaded or otherwise moulded. In expensive
cabinet work, glued dovetail and multiple tongue and groove are used.

Sliding Wood Board
A sliding board is a piece of equipment that can be used if a person is not able to use their legs to
complete a transfer between surfaces or if a standing transfer is not safe to perform.  The board is
used to make a solid “bridge” between the two surfaces that a person can slide across to transfer
between them.

Girts, Rafters, Truss, Purlins, and Fascia Board

Girts and purlins are components of the secondary frame of a metal building. A girt is a
horizontal structural member in a framed wall that provides lateral support to the wall panel to
resist wind loads. Purlins perform the same service for the roof panels.

Girts and Purlins may also be called sheeting rails. These secondary frame members are used in
commercial, residential and industrial steel buildings. Another secondary frame member, the
eave strut, is also known as an eave girt or eave purlin. The eave strut is the last girt at the top of
the wall or the first purlin at the connection between the roof and the wall.

A rafter is one of a series of sloped structural members such as wooden beams that extend from

the ridge or hip to the wall plate, downslope perimeter or eave, and that are designed to support
the roof deck and its associated loads. A pair of rafters is called a couple. In home construction,
rafters are normally made of wood. Exposed rafters are a feature of some traditional roof styles.

A truss is an assembly of beams or other elements that creates a rigid structure. In engineering,
a truss is a structure that "consists of two-force members only, where the members are organized
so that the assemblage as a whole behaves as a single object". A "two-force member" is a
structural component where force is applied to only two points. Although this rigorous definition
allows the members to have any shape connected in any stable configuration, trusses typically
comprise five or more triangular units constructed with straight members whose ends are
connected at joints referred to as nodes.

Fascia comes from the Latin word meaning a “band or strip of material.” The fascia used in
architecture is a bit like the fascia that wraps around your muscles, forming a protective sheath.
However, fascia around your house is more or less a horizontal board that covers the exposed
trusses or roof rafters at the point where the walls meet the rooftop. Many homeowners do not
realize that fascia even exists on their home, because it is often covered up by gutters. 
New homeowners often get confused when they hear their roofing contractor throwing around
jargon like “soffit” and “fascia,” and some even end up thinking these roofing elements are the
same exact thing. While soffit and fascia are indeed related, they each have their own role to
play. Soffits are the exposed siding beneath the overhang of your roof. Soffit is usually made of
vinyl or aluminum, but wooden soffit is also available. 

Now, you cannot have a safe household without soffit and fascia working together seamlessly.
Soffit helps maintain the airflow between the roof and the attic. It is key in hindering mold
growth. Soffit also prevents vermin and insects out of your house.
