C24 Carcassing Timber

C24 timber is kiln-dried treated structural graded softwood that is most commonly used where a grading stamp is required, it is a higher grade structural timber than C16, however, unless C24 grade is specified C16 graded timber is more than sufficient for most purposes and will normally be at a lower cost. You can find C16 graded timber here.
