l-Joists Production Growing

Despite low-to-moderate lumber prices in first quarter 1998, builders continue switching to wood I-joists in record numbers, according to recent production figures from APA-The Engineered Wood Association.

Volume increases in the use of wood I-joists continue to outpace new housing starts. "At this rate, we could see the market share grow from 33Vo in 1997 to 4OVo this year," says Craig Adair, APA manager of market research.

In the first four months of the year, I-joist production was very strong at a time when lumber prices were depressed. "These numbers indicate that builders are willing to pay a little more up-front for a product that is easier to install and provides better performance," he says. "And when lumber prices drop we don't see a move to switch back. Experience indicates that builders who use l-joists two or three times are unlikely to return to traditional lumber framing materials."

The association forecasts I-joist production to top 760 million linear ft. in 1998 and nearly I billion in the year 2000.

New Rule For Remodelers

Beginning June l, 1999, remodelers hired for certain renovation projects will be required by the EPA to provide homeowners and occupants with the pamphlet "Protect Your Family from Lead in Your Home."

Contractors who renovate and disturb painted surfaces on any home built before 1978 must distribute the pamplet and obtain the homeowner's signature before work begins.
