Product Summary
Boise Cascade Rimboard makes construction simpler. With a lengths of 12' and 24' and depths that match BCI® and AJS® I-joists, construction time is reduced. It can handle seismic and high wind loads. No special backing is required for siding or deck attachment.
Construction and Materials
Boise Cascade's Rimboard is a high-performance engineered wood product designed to provide a robust and stable edge for engineered wood floor systems. It is specifically engineered to act as a structural component, offering superior strength and dimensional stability compared to traditional lumber.
Construction and Materials
- Rimboard is manufactured using advanced engineered wood technology.
- It is typically constructed from kiln-dried wood strands or veneers.
- These wood components are oriented and bonded together with specialized resins.
- The manufacturing process involves precise alignment of wood fibers and controlled application of adhesives.
- This method creates a product that is exceptionally strong, consistent, and resistant to warping and twisting.
- The materials used are carefully selected for their durability and structural integrity, ensuring a reliable performance in construction applications.
Features and Benefits
Boise Cascade Rim Board is a high-performance engineered wood product designed to provide a strong and stable perimeter for engineered wood floor joist systems. It is specifically engineered to frame the outer edges of floors, creating a solid foundation for your entire structure.
Key Features:
- Engineered Strength: Manufactured using advanced engineering processes, Boise Cascade Rim Board offers superior strength and dimensional stability compared to traditional solid lumber.
- Consistent Quality: Each piece is manufactured to exacting standards, ensuring uniformity in size, strength, and performance.
- Precise Dimensions: Available in a range of standard dimensions to perfectly match Boise Cascade Engineered Wood Joists, facilitating a seamless installation.
- Easy to Work With: Designed for standard construction practices, it cuts, fastens, and installs with ease, saving time and labor on the job site.
- Reduced Waste: The consistent quality and precise dimensions minimize callbacks and material waste.
Benefits:
- Enhanced Structural Integrity: Provides a robust connection point for floor joists, contributing to a stronger, more stable floor system.
- Improved Building Performance: Contributes to a stiffer floor that resists deflection and reduces the potential for squeaks and vibrations.
- Faster Installation: Its compatibility with Boise Cascade Engineered Wood Joists and ease of handling streamline the construction process.
- Reliable Foundation: Offers peace of mind knowing your floor perimeter is built with a product designed for lasting performance.
- Cost-Effective Solution: The combination of durability, ease of installation, and reduced waste makes it an economical choice for builders.
Core Advantages:
The core advantage of Boise Cascade Rim Board lies in its synergy with Boise Cascade Engineered Wood Joists. This engineered pairing ensures a system-built approach that guarantees superior performance and ease of installation. Unlike solid lumber, which can be prone to warping, shrinking, or swelling, Boise Cascade Rim Board maintains its integrity under varying environmental conditions, leading to a more durable and predictable building outcome. Its engineered nature allows for precise dimensioning, which is critical for creating a tight, efficient, and strong floor frame.
