New Requirements for Finger-Joint Lumber
The National Research Council has recently announced that, subject to final approval by the Canadian Commission on Building and Fire Codes, there will be new information added to the Tables on fire resistant assemblies in Appendix A of the National Building Code relating to the marking requirements for finger-joined lumber in fire-resistant assemblies. These markings may have already begun to appear on lumber products in fire-resistant assemblies and safety codes officers are advised to only accept finger-joined lumber in fire-resistant assemblies that bear the new marks. For more detailed information and for examples of the new markings, click here.
