Where can I find information on federal specifications and standards for lumber and wood products?
• A publication entitled Index of Federal Specifications and Standards for Lumber and Wood Products including Product Standards, Commercial Standards, Military Specifications, Government Construction Guide Specifications, Industry Standards and Grading Rules dated February 1990 is an out of print AF&PA publication. A more current source of information is one of the following: National Institute of Building Science (NIBS) http://www.nibs.org Construction Criteria Base (CCB) http://www.ccb.org or The Guide to Wood Design Information, http://www.woodinfo.org/GWDhome.
