The box heart of Southern Yellow Pine (SYP) is used in our homes. These logs are harvested in North Carolina and Virginia and are air-dried to around 19% -25% before milling. SYP is one of the strongest softwoods available (has higher design values than Eastern White Pine, all the cedars, Red Oak and comparable to White Oak) with a beautiful wood grain pattern. All logs are 8 inches wide by 6 inches high and planed to eliminate bark for termites and other wood borers to hide in. 5.
