EWP GRADES: SELECTS

Selects: Direct from our mills, this is actually a C-select grade, which is the highest NELMA pine grade. While many of the pieces are clear, the grade does allow one sound, tight, pin knot (max 1/2”) per 4 surface feet. This grade is used for natural or stained finish, fine woodwork-ing or interior trim. It is used for high quality interior/exterior trim & cabinet work.

Five layers of a select board pack are shown to reflect the scope of the grade.

23 24

EWP GRADES: FINISH/DFR

Finish/DFR:Commonly referred to as DFR by the mills, this is a finish and better product. All defects allowed in FINISH are also allowed in DFR; the only difference is the knot limitations. The maximum red knot shall not exceed the allowable black knot sizes in each width. Take advantage of this grade and its natural characteristics with a natural finish– or, paint the surface. Boards can be applied in both exterior and interior spaces.

Five layers of a finish board pack are shown to reflect the scope of the grade.

25

EWP GRADES: PREMIUM

Premium:Premium is a good appearance knotty grade. The grade tends to have more red knotted wood. Prod-uct is used where a more natural effect is desired; common use for this grade would be interior pattern. This is an appearance grade board characterized by sound tight red knots.

Often used for interior/exterior trim, paneling, flooring, and furniture.

PRE-FINISHING SOLUTIONS

The pre-finishing process. Hancock Lumber’s pre-finishing solution center specializes in the finishing of Eastern White Pine. Engineered for the unique needs of EWP, the equipment specialization includes: the coatings, the coatings application method and more specifically the coatings drying process. During the process, the ovens—and therefore the wood— never exceed 100 degrees. This is especially important for Eastern White Pine where hot ovens make pitch turn into liquid and bleed. The facility ensures paint dries very slowly and is not cooked.

To start, all four sides of the board are sealed with BIN. BIN is a white pigmented shellac that has a very good history at retarding the natural pitch that occurs in pine knots. The BIN cures for 8-12 hours.

From there, the wood is brought to the oil based priming line where it is sprayed and put on drying racks with an automated machine called a stacker. The combination of the oil primer spray application and the automated stacker ensures that the boards have no finger prints or drips and minimal rack marks. This pre-finishing solutions center is the only company to apply oil primer this way.

The second coat is a 100% acrylic primer, topcoat hybrid that is engineered to work with the oil primer. It is designed to be durable enough after installation to last for months before a field coat needs to be applied (as long as end cuts and nail holes are sealed upon installation). This part of the process is started by first lightly buffing the material to take down any fuzzed up grain from the oil prime coat. The facility sprays the top and edges prior to entering the first oven. The board exits oven one, is turned over and the process is repeated on the other face of the board. This completed process gives the builder a completely reversible product with little or no difference from front to back.

Application, Priming, Nailing & Pattern Selection

Painted or poly’d, Eastern White Pine (EWP) is anexcellent wood for siding and trim, both exterior andinterior. It’s easy to work with and readily availablefrom Hancock Lumber thanks to our three fully modern sawmills in Bethel, Casco, and Pittsfield,Maine where we produce more high quality EWPboards than any other company.

Working with any quality material requires someexpert knowledge and experience. When you’reworking with EWP, there are a few simple steps you should take.

Managing moisture content to ensure a first quality job.

All wood shrinks and swells with changes in moisture content. Even after an Eastern White Pineboard has been expertly kiln dried at our sawmill, itcontinues to be affected by ambient humidity. That’swhy it’s very important to minimize any dimensionalchange after installation by installing siding or trim ata moisture content that matches the local climate asclosely as possible.

For example, if the climate in a particular regioncauses wood to maintain 8% to 13% moisture content annually, the ideal approach is to install thewoodwork with moisture content within that range.

Here’s the trick on acclimatingEastern White Pine.

All it takes is a bit of patience and knowing to ordermaterials so they are on-site at least one weekbefore you nail them up.

By storing Eastern White Pine boards for a shortperiod in the right climate, they become “seasoned”and will settle in to the dimension they’ll hold formany decades to come. The boards should be

stored, stickered, and protectedfor one week to ten days priorto application.

Keep in mind that you’re striving for an average moisturecontent for that region. Duringextremely dry or wet weather,you may want to wait for a period of average humidityto achieve the desired moisture content.

Priming on all sides and edges is the best approach.

Properly seasoned boards can still pick up moistureafter installation and prior to painting. When sidingreleases this added moisture, joints may open up orbuckling may occur.

The best protection against this is to prime or pre-finish the siding on all sides, edges, and endsafter it has reached climatic balance and before it is installed. In order to give each board the bestprotection, it’s important to prime the ends aftermaking fresh cuts during installation. Pre-finishingcan also minimize objectionable, unfinished lineswhere joints open up due to face width shrinkage.

What if the job just won’t wait?

If you have to install unseasoned materials, there aresome strategies you can use to allow for or minimizethe effects of shrinking and swelling:

• Use as narrow width as possible• Use patterns that “forgive” some shrinkage

such as Board & Batten, Channel Rustic with adequate tongue, Board on Board,Narrow Bevel, etc.

• Let the wood season in-place before applying a finish

• Pre-stain the boards before installation

Construction Details

The overall siting and design of a house will affecthow well siding performs. There are a number ofhouse construction features that will minimize waterdamage of outside paint including:

• Wide roof overhang• Wide flashing under shingles at roof edges• Effective vapor barriers• Adequate roof gutters and properly

installed downspouts• Exhaust fans to remove excessive moisture• Adequate insulation and ventilation of the attic

If these features are lacking in a new house,persistent paint blistering and peeling may occur and the structure then would best be finished withpenetrating pigmented stains.

Nails and Nailing

Good nails and nailing practices are a must in proper application of wood siding. Nail locations areincluded under individual patterns. However, the following data about nails will be very helpful in theselection and use of the right nail for the right use.

Requirements

The following requirements are essential for nailsused on EWP siding:

1. Rust-resistant, preferably rustproof.See “Types of Nails Recommended.”

2. Should not cause splitting even when driven near end or edge of siding.

3. Should have adequate strength to avoid the need for pre-drilling.

4. Nails should be able to be driven easily and rapidly.

5. A nail should not emerge or “pop” at any time after being driven flush with siding.

6. The nail head should not cause an unsightly visible pattern on the sidewall.

7. Nail butt joints at the stud or blocking.8. Nailing is preferred over stapling.

The proper application and nailing of wood sidingdoes much to improve the appearance and durabilityof both wood and paint by reducing the tendency ofthe siding to split, crack, and cup with changes inmoisture content. When possible, depending on thesiding pattern, siding boards should be fastened soboards are free to shrink and swell, thereby reducingthe tensile stresses that develop at fasteners.

Types of Nail Recommended

Common iron nails or poor-quality galvanized nailscorrode easily and will cause unsightly staining ofthe wood and paint.

1. Stainless Steel 2. High Tensile Strength Aluminum Nail

This nail is corrosive-resistant and will not tend to discolor or deteriorate the wood siding. It is an economical nail when the nail count per pound is considered, although it is somewhat more expensive than the common galvanized.

3. Galvanized Nail.Hot-dipped galvanizing. Degree of coating protection varies.

When the wood is to be left unfinished to weather or finished naturally with light-colored penetratingstains or water-repellent preservatives, only aluminum or stainless steel nails should be used.

Nail penetration and Spacing

Suggested sizes are minimal and should be longerwhen siding is installed over other than wood

Construction Details

The overall siting and design of a house will affecthow well siding performs. There are a number ofhouse construction features that will minimize waterdamage of outside paint including:

• Wide roof overhang• Wide flashing under shingles at roof edges• Effective vapor barriers• Adequate roof gutters and properly

installed downspouts• Exhaust fans to remove excessive moisture• Adequate insulation and ventilation of the attic

If these features are lacking in a new house,persistent paint blistering and peeling may occur and the structure then would best be finished withpenetrating pigmented stains.

Nails and Nailing

Good nails and nailing practices are a must in proper application of wood siding. Nail locations areincluded under individual patterns. However, the following data about nails will be very helpful in theselection and use of the right nail for the right use.

Requirements

The following requirements are essential for nailsused on EWP siding:

1. Rust-resistant, preferably rustproof.See “Types of Nails Recommended.”

2. Should not cause splitting even when driven near end or edge of siding.

3. Should have adequate strength to avoid the need for pre-drilling.

4. Nails should be able to be driven easily and rapidly.

5. A nail should not emerge or “pop” at any time after being driven flush with siding.

6. The nail head should not cause an unsightly visible pattern on the sidewall.

7. Nail butt joints at the stud or blocking.8. Nailing is preferred over stapling.

The proper application and nailing of wood sidingdoes much to improve the appearance and durabilityof both wood and paint by reducing the tendency ofthe siding to split, crack, and cup with changes inmoisture content. When possible, depending on thesiding pattern, siding boards should be fastened soboards are free to shrink and swell, thereby reducingthe tensile stresses that develop at fasteners.

Types of Nail Recommended

Common iron nails or poor-quality galvanized nailscorrode easily and will cause unsightly staining ofthe wood and paint.

1. Stainless Steel 2. High Tensile Strength Aluminum Nail

This nail is corrosive-resistant and will not tend to discolor or deteriorate the wood siding. It is an economical nail when the nail count per pound is considered, although it is somewhat more expensive than the common galvanized.

3. Galvanized Nail.Hot-dipped galvanizing. Degree of coating protection varies.

When the wood is to be left unfinished to weather or finished naturally with light-colored penetratingstains or water-repellent preservatives, only aluminum or stainless steel nails should be used.

Nail penetration and Spacing

Suggested sizes are minimal and should be longerwhen siding is installed over other than wood

38

sheathing and/or sheathing and studs. Recommendedpenetration into a solid wood base is 1 1/2”, 1 1/4”with ring shank nails.

Vertical siding should be nailed to blocking or otherwood framing members not over 36” on center whenface nailed, and 32” on center when blind nailed.

Horizontal siding should be nailed to studs at 24”o.c. maximum when applied over solid sheathing and16” o.c. maximum when applied without sheathing.

Nail Shanks

Many nails are smooth shanked and will loosenunder extremes in temperature changes. Increased

holding power may be obtained by using a ring-threaded or spiral-threaded nail shank.These particular shanks are readily available.

Nail Points

The most commonly used nail points include:Blunt – reduces splitting Diamond – most commonly used Needle – tops in holding but tendency

to cause splitting For the best possible holding power with the leastsplitting, a blunt or medium diamond and a blunt or medium needle with a ring-threaded shank arerecommended

How to estimate coverage

The following estimator provides factors for determining the exactamount of material needed for basictypes of wood siding.

Multiply square footage to be covered by factor (length x width x factor).

*Allowance for trim and waste should be added
