Roseburg's solid sawn RFPI® Joist will be produced in two series, RFPI® 40S and RFPI® 60S. Both series will have a 2-1/2" wide by 1-1/2" thick solid sawn flange and will be available in four depths, with lengths up to 60'. The I-Joists are engineered to the high-quality APA standards and are compatible with standard I-Joist hangers and connectors.

Bob Berch, Roseburg's EWP National Sales Manager states, "the solid sawn I-Joists are a great addition to our broad line of engineered wood products. Bundling them with our RigidLam® LVL and RigidRim® Rimboard creates a quality engineered wood products package that fits an excellent price point for building residential homes and multi-family projects".

In addition to the new solid sawn flanged RFPI® Joist, Roseburg will continue to produce LVL flanged RFPI® Joist, RigidLam® LVL for headers and beams, and RigidRim® Rimboard.
