サザンパイン
木材グレード
説明
プロジェクトが異なれば必要な木材の種類も異なりますが、どの種類のサザンパイン材がプロジェクトに適しているかを知るにはどうすればよいでしょうか? そこで、木材グレードの説明の出番です。
木材の等級は、木材の品質と特性について知る必要があるすべてのコードとして機能するため、商業用、工業用、住宅用など、特定のプロジェクトに必要なものを手に入れることができます。
サザンパイン材は、通常、外観と構造特性に基づいて等級付けされます。 各グレードは、さまざまな用途に対する木材の品質と適合性を詳述しています。 グレードの説明には、次のガイダンスも記載されています。
- 構造的完全性
- 特徴と美学
- 耐久性
- 規範の遵守
- 品質保証
SPIBグレーディングルールに基づくグレードの説明
| Grade | Grade Characteristics and Typical Uses |
|---|---|
| See Table 1 for design values | |
| *Dense Select Structural Select Structural *Select Structural Non-Dense | High quality, limited in characteristics that affect strength or stiffness. Recommended for uses where high strength, stiffness and good appearance are desired. |
| *No.1 Dense No.1 *No. 1 Non-Dense | Recommended for construction where high strength, stiffness and good appearance are desired. |
| *No.2 Dense No.2 *No.2 Non-Dense | Recommended for most general construction uses where moderately high design values are required. Allows well-spaced knots of any quality. |
| No.3 | Recommended for general construction purposes where appearance is not a controlling factor. Many pieces included in this grade would qualify as No.2 except for a single limiting characteristic. |
| Stud | Suitable for stud uses including use in load-bearing walls. Composite of No.3 strength and No.1 nailing edge characteristics for a better nailing surface. |
| *Construction (2″ to 4″ wide only) | Recommended for general framing purposes. Good appearance, but graded primarily for strength and serviceability. |
| *Standard (2″ to 4″ wide only) | Recommended for same purposes as Construction grade. Characteristics are limited to provide good strength and excellent serviceability. |
| *Utility (2″ to 4″ wide only) | Recommended where a combination of economical construction and good strength is desired. Used for such purposes as studding, blocking, plates, bracing and rafters. Design values only apply to utility lumber that is 4” wide. |
| Economy (Design values are not assigned) | Usable lengths suitable for bracing, blocking, bulkheading and other general utility purposes where strength and appearance are not a consideration. |
| Grade | Grade Characteristics and Typical Uses |
|---|---|
| See Table 1 for design values | |
| No.1 Prime | Recommended where appearance and strength are a consideration. Grade based on No.1 Dimension Lumber except wane and other characteristics that affect appearance are limited. |
| No.2 Prime | Recommended where appearance and strength are a consideration. Grade based on No.2 Dimension Lumber except wane and other characteristics that affect appearance are limited. |
| Grade | Grade Characteristics and Typical Uses |
|---|---|
| See Table 3 for design values | |
| Dense Select Structural Select Structural | Recommended where high strength, stiffness and good appearance are desired. |
| No.1 Dense No.1 | Recommended for general construction uses. Similar in appearance to No.1 Dimension Lumber. |
| No.2 Dense No.2 | Recommended for general construction uses. Similar in appearance to No.2 Dimension Lumber. |
| No.3 (Design values are not assigned) | Non-stress rated, but economical for general utility purposes such as bracing, blocking, bulkheading, etc. |
| Grade | Grade Characteristics and Typical Uses |
|---|---|
| See Table 2 or SPIB Grading Rules for design values | |
| 750f – 1.4E thru 3000f – 2.4E | Machine Stress Rated (MSR) lumber is evaluated by mechanical stress rating equipment. MSR lumber is distinguished from visually stress graded lumber in that each piece is non-destructively tested. MSR lumber is also required to meet certain visual grading requirements. The grade mark can include “1W” or “2W” if visually graded to the wane requirements for No.1 or No.2 dimension lumber, respectively. |
| Grade | Grade Characteristics and Typical Uses |
|---|---|
| See Table 2 or SPIB Grading Rules for design values | |
| M-5 thru M-42 | Well-manufactured material evaluated by calibrated mechanical grading equipment which measures certain properties and sorts the lumber into various strength classifications. Machine Evaluated Lumber is also required to meet certain visual requirements. The grade mark can include “1W” or “2W” if visually graded to the wane requirements for No.1 or No.2 dimension lumber, respectively. |
| Grade | Grade Characteristics and Typical Uses |
|---|---|
| Design Values by qualification | |
| E-grades | Suitable for use as individual laminations for structural glued laminated timbers. This lumber has been non-destructively evaluated by an American Lumber Standard Committee approved machine. |
| Grade | Grade Characteristics and Typical Uses |
|---|---|
| See Table 1 for design values | |
| See Dimension Lumber Grades | End-glued, face-glued, and edge-glued Southern Pine in glued assemblies, including stress-rated grades of finger-jointed 2″ Dimension Lumber. |
| Grade | Grade Characteristics and Typical Uses |
|---|---|
| See Table 4 for design values | |
| Dense Industrial 72 Scaffold Plank Dense Industrial 65 Scaffold Plank | All Scaffold Plank design values are calculated using ASTM Standards D245 and D2555. These values are modified using procedures shown in “Calculating Apparent Reliability of Wood Scaffold Planks,” as published by the Journal on Structural Safety, 2 (1984) 47-57, and updated in 1993. |
| MSR Scaffold Plank: 2400f – 2.0E MSR Scaffold Plank: 2200f – 1.8E | Dressed to standard dry size prior to machine stress rating, and visually graded to assure that characteristics affecting strength are no more serious than the limiting characteristics for each grade. MSR Scaffold Plank is available 2″-thick only. |
| Grade | Grade Characteristics and Typical Uses |
|---|---|
