Lumber & Plywood
Strength and durability are the top two reasons you would choose a specific type of lumber, but at Spring Valley Building Centre we also want you to like the look of what you build. Each wood has its own distinct grain and colour, and will be classified as either soft or hardwood.
Soft or Hard Lumber:
| Type of Wood | Trees | Uses | Tension & Shear |
| Softwood | Pine, spruce, cedar, fir, larch, douglas fir, etc. | Woodware, building homes/cabins and furniture. | Strong in tension but weak in shear. |
| Hardwood | Mahogany, teak, walnut, oak, ash, elm, aspen, poplar, birch, maple, etc. | Construction, furniture, flooring, and utensils. | Strong in compression, tension and shear. |
For your convenience, we have included links to our trusted suppliers below. Ready to get started on your next building project? Contact us, visit us in-store or request a quote today.
