No. IBS units are manufactured to exact sizes for each material and on-center spacing to insure a tight fit. Use only the IBS unit manufactured for your specific application. Note: one I-joist is made to the same size as dimension lumber joists. Lumber joist IBS may be used with this brand of joist only.
