By Brendan Rimetz 84 Lumber agreed to pay over $725,000 as part of a settlement with the California Department of Industrial Relations' (DIR) Division of Labor Standards stemming from a 2009 investigation of labor practices at a state university construction site.

The total payment covers $726,063.24, of which $564,938.24 is for outstanding wages and $161,125 is for related penalties. The investigation involved the Tercero Housing Project at the University of California, Davis. 84 Lumber was originally hired by the project's general contractor, Brown Construction, to perform framing work on the building. 84 Lumber, in turn, subcontracted the work out to Russell/ Thompson Inc., a Redding, Calif.-based company.

Advertiser “Stuff” Thomas McAnally - Publisher

Free Equipment Wanted Ads? As the industry starts to pick up, some of you will look for a bargain, some need to replace worn out equipment, and hopefully many will need to expand operations. There is no better way than to tell the industry by placing your ad in the Advertiser. Before we jump in and start a new section, develop display and print ad pricing, let’s see if you have any use for an “Equipment Wanted” section. Wasserman and Associates, and Wood Truss Systems both have Equipment Wanted ads, but what about our manufacturers?

Let’s test this out for a few weeks and see if anyone bites. We are offering a free Text Only Equipment Wanted ad, one column wide by 3” tall, or so. You should be able to describe what you are looking for, where you are, and what condition or price range you are willing to consider.

Need parts? That is free too for now.

Email your Equipment Wanted ad to me and I will insert it for one month free!

84 Lumber Settlement Continued from page 3

"This settlement will make available wages that should have been rightfully paid to workers," said Julie Su, labor commissioner. "It also sends a strong message that on public works projects, prime contractors will be held responsible when their subcontractors fail to follow labor laws."

The investigation found that the subcontractor failed to pay overtime and misclassified workers by identifying them as lower skilled workers rather than as the higher skilled positions they actually worked. A June 2010 decision by the labor commissioner ordered Russell/Thompson to pay $1.3 million in back wages and $200,000 in fines. After the decision a civil wage and penalty assessment was served against 84 Lumber and Brown Construction.

The Eighty Four, Pa.-based dealer was one of four contractors fined to wage violations at the Tercero Housing Project at the University of California, Davis.

Two other subcontractors from the project, Kings Drywall and JL Home Development, were also ordered to pay more than $1.3 million in back wages as a result of the investigation.

"This public works project represents a considerable investment of public funds, and contractors on these projects must be held accountable," said DIR acting director Christine Baker.

84 Lumber is ranked No. 5 on the ProSales 100 with 2010 sales of $1.4 billion. It operates roughly GET RESULTS ! 250 stores throughout the country.

Wasserman & Associates 800-382-0329

Doldrums have set in for the North American lumber industry as this year winds down. Players have examined their bottom lines for the second half of 2011 and don’t like what they see. The much-needed boost of demand from China in November, as it had been for the past two years, has not materialized. There are orders of lumber going to China regularly, yes, but at the same volumes as seen monthly since July.

Even the British Columbia government trade mission to China, which started Friday, is admitting greater difficulty in signing order agreements this year compared to the past two years. Unless something drastic changes over the next few days of that trade mission, 2010 will prove to have been the most successful year by far of the past three.

Serious transportation issues continue to plague North American lumber producers and shippers, and it appears that things will get worse before they get better. Much worse. The supply chain is not ready for the small ramp up of solid wood demand that is coming early next year, and -- at current small shipment volumes -- is already showing strain.

2005 Triad



The rails are being no more cooperative, in Canada and in the US. Canadian lumber producers in remote northern areas have been complaining about the shoddy service provided by the CN Rail monopoly for most of this year. In the US it is Burlington Northern that abruptly decided to take a large number of newly-released, long-idled rail cars out of service for much needed maintenance.

Truckers servicing the west coast have all but abandoned lumber producers, after four solid years of uncertainty and a total lack of customer loyalty. Where sawmills used to dictate to truckers schedules and routes, truckers are now outright refusing to deliver from remote areas covering large distances with dead-head returns. In the east truckers are still agreeing to work for the lumber industry, but annual Christmas retail deliveries always usurp regular lumber shipments at this time of year. On the west coast the added demand of efficient delivery of Christmas trees takes a significant portion of truckers off lumber routes.

Shippers grumble: why can’t the railways determine bad order cars before sending them to mills for loading? A valid inquiry.

SERVING THE STRUCTURAL BUILDING COMPONENTS, ENGINEERED WOOD PRODUCTS AND MILLWORK INDUSTRY

Truss Repair and Replacement Christina Huerta - Friday, November 04, 2011 Recently, I heard a story about a homeowner needing to repair a truss on an older home. For anyone that is not familiar with what a truss is – A truss is a major part of the framework of a house. Trusses are constructed from wood or metal, such as steel. The trusses are designed and engineered to withstand the weight of the roof along with other forces such as wind.

After hearing the homeowner’s story, I decided to Google “truss repair and replace.”

The search results were scarce but honestly, I was pleased to find that there are only professional contractor results on the subject. In an age where you can virtually learn to repair anything online from dishwashers to cars, there are still some things that should be left to the more-experienced.

For several reasons, there is a major safety precaution that comes with this particular home repair – Retrofitting trusses is the most dangerous aspect of home construction. In addition, to complete this task, you need to have an engineer seal any truss repair or replacement and a truss contractor would need to properly replace or repair a truss. If you have an older home and your home builder or contractor is no longer in existence, you can look at the actual truss to find the truss plant’s name and/or logo marking to determine if they are still in business, and you can begin the repair or replacement process by contacting the truss plant.

Repairing or replacing trusses in a home ranks high as a task that should be left to a professional contractor. To locate a local truss contractor in your area, I would suggest conducting an organic search on Google and/or reviewing websites such as www.contractortalk.com.
