Cup:
2 mm maximum per 100 mm of face. 4.1.2 Finger jointed timber Finger jointed timber shall meet the requirements of EN 385 for the appropriate service class.
4.1.3 Resistance to biological organisms The timber shall either have adequate natural durability in accordance with EN 350-2 for the intended service class as defined in EN 335-1 and EN 335-2, or be given a preservative treatment selected in accordance with EN 351-1 and EN 460. 4.2 Punched metal plate fasteners The fasteners shall fulfil the requirements of prEN 14545 and shall correspond to the fasteners specified in the design.
