Structural Solid Timber Spruce NSi – KVH beams planed & finger-jointed

Our structural solid timber made of spruce in NSi quality is suitable for numerous structural applications in timber construction. The KVH beams are manufactured from kiln-dried spruce wood, are planed on all sides, and have slightly chamfered edges.

The 13.0 m long bars are finger-jointed and can be cut to size for shipping or to suit your required length. The available cutting options can be selected directly via the respective product variant.

Cutting the KVH beams

The beams are cut from a 13.0 m long base bar according to the selected variant. This allows even longer KVH cross-sections to be ordered and transported conveniently.

Important note on cutting:
We perform the cuts manually using a chainsaw. Due to the saw kerf, material loss occurs with every cut. Therefore, when combining cuts on an initial length of exactly 13.0 m, the resulting pieces may be slightly shorter than the calculated nominal dimension. The cuts are not to be understood as finished dimensions accurate to the millimeter.

For applications where an exact final dimension is required, sufficient allowance should be planned for subsequent fine trimming or final cutting on the construction site.

KVH Spruce for structural timber construction

Due to the technical drying, finger-jointing, and planed surface, the KVH Spruce NSi is suitable for numerous applications in structural timber construction. Typical areas of use include, for example, timber structures, substructures, frame constructions, as well as other load-bearing and structural components – in each case taking into account the planning and static requirements of the respective construction project.
