Engineered Wood & Steel
Today's residential and commercial building trends calling for large, open spaces and high ceilings are also creating a demand for products that provide greater strength and stability over longer spans. Engineered wood and structural steel products are growing in popularity for framing and roofing systems due to their strength and reliability. Engineered wood products eliminate waste associated with unusable lumber by taking out the inconsistencies found in traditional solid wood products. When installed, they use 50% less wood than ordinary lumber. Shepley carry’s the Boise® line of engineered wood products, along with structural steel products.
