What happens here

The video concludes by showcasing Prowood TrueFrame Joists already installed as part of a framing structure. The visible consistency and flatness of the installed joists serve as a testament to their pre-finished quality, reinforcing the earlier statement that no manual planing was necessary for this material. The outcome is a flat and stable sub-structure, ready for subsequent construction phases.

Goal: Achieve a flat and stable framed structure without the need for manual lumber planing.

Tools and materials

  • Framing Hammer — Driving nails to secure joists
  • Level — Ensuring the joists are installed perfectly flat and level (briefly shown with the second person)
  • Prowood TrueFrame Joist Prowood — Constructing the structural framework

What they say

only is it a consistent 9 in every time, it's also kiln-dried after treatment, so it's a lot lighter and it's not going to twist and turn as much as it dries out like normal pressure treated so what we used here, no planing necessary, flat as can be. Wow.
