Engineered timber enhancements from Hyne Timber for better beams

Hyne is calling on architects, building designers and builders to
refresh their Hyne Design software to coincide with enhancements to its engineered
timber products, marketed as Hyne Truebeams. Effective 1 March 2008, there are three
changes to the Hyne Truebeams value package, from which wholesale customers specify
the most popular engineered products:
- Hyne LVL (laminated veneer lumber) will replace Hyne LGL in all markets other
than tropical Queensland. This cost effective engineered softwood is interchangeable
with LGL in most specifications and features a high strength to weight ratio as well
as availability in long lengths.
- The inclusion of Hyne Primed, a new finger-jointed and laminated range of Truebeams
that are dressed, sanded, H3 treated and primed for outdoor, above ground
applications;
- New Hyne I-Beam specifications, with flange size dimensions changing to 90 x 35mm
in four sizes only. This will ensure continued reliable supply of this preferred
product (with solid timber flanges) but it will require some minor variations to span
designs;
The package also includes the Hyne Beam 17C, Hyne Beam 18C and Hyne Beam 21C ranges,
which remain the same.
Peter Hyne, General Manager Wholesale, said that the latest Hyne Design v6.0 software
will be a necessity to transition to the new and improved package.
"The new Hyne Truebeams package aims to make selection simpler, faster and better.
We're advising our customers to update Hyne Design as soon as possible and they will
be met with unparalleled support and service from our technical sales teams."
