Lists of contact names were also created from a host of published green • Alphabetically by company type and then alphabetically building resource guides, the National Wood Recycling by state directory, lists of organization memberships (such as the Used Building Materials Association), and attendee lists from conferences related to this field. The directory uses a code to categorize companies by their primary activities: BR Broker of recovered materials CN Building contractor or trade that uses reclaimed lumber in projects DC Deconstruction company that practices partial or whole building disassembly for the purposes of recovering building materials for reuse DM Demolition company that engages in selective dismantling and deconstruction EQ Producer or dealer of equipment used in building deconstruction (this does not include heavy equipment) EV Environmental services company (such as asbestos or lead abatement) RC Materials recycler, and not intended to be inclusive (for example, a concrete recycler would not be listed) UMS Used building materials retail sales VA Producer/seller of value-added products In many cases, the companies listed engage in a variety of overlapping activities. For this reason, many companies listed have more than one associated code. The most common examples of overlap include wood salvaging for the purposes of value-added product manufacturing and demoli- tion companies that augment these services with used building materials retail sales. If the company indicated that they primarily deal with specific species of wood, these are listed under “Species.” ii Directory of Wood-Framed Building Deconstruction and Reused Wood Building Materials Companies, 2005 Robert H.

  • Opportunities and Regulatory Barrier for the Reuse of Salvaged Dimensional Lumber from Pre-1940S Houses
    Opportunities and Regulatory Barrier for the Reuse of Salvaged Dimensional Lumber from Pre-1940s Houses Zahra. S. H. Teshnizi GREENEST CITY SCHOLAR 2015 Mentors: Lisa Brideau & Hugo Haley “It has been said that our old growth forests still stand — not in our forests, but in our buildings. Think about all that wood, every timber that makes up the bones of our homes, our schools and our workplaces. There’s a lot of it, and it is reusable. ” (Delta Institute, 2012, p. 5) Executive summary One third of the total solid waste in Metro Vancouver, is Construction, Renovation and Demolition (CRD) waste. Close to 90% of the CRD waste that is directly going to landfill in Metro Vancouver is from demolition projects. Compared to commercial buildings, one-two family houses have been far less successful in diverting demolition waste. Wood is the predominant material in single family homes in Vancouver and studies indicate that most of this wood is divertible and should not be sent to landfills. Old houses are a valuable source of high-quality wood from old-growth forests. Despite all the environmental, heritage, and social benefits of building deconstruction and salvage material reuse (specifically wood materials), this is yet to become the common practice in Vancouver. To support the Greenest City Action Plan and the Green Demolition Bylaw of the City of Vancouver, this project aimed to assess opportunities and regulatory barriers to reuse of non- contaminated dimensional lumber from houses built in 1940s or earlier in Vancouver. The project entailed three components: 1. Identifying the quantity, type, quality, and salvageability of dimensional lumber in pre-1940s houses: This information was collected through literature review, site visit of a heritage house renovation project, and interview with the experts in the field.

  • Pure Catskills Wood Products
    Pure Catskills Wood Products A Directory of Manufacturers & Craftspeople in the Catskill Mountains of New York State Pure Catskills Wood Products is a directory for producers, suppliers, architects, designers and other buyers to connect with wood products businesses and related industry resources in the Catskill Mountain Region. By sourcing producers through this directory, buyers are promoting a working landscape of well-managed forests and a thriving forest-based economy that protects the largest surface water supply system in the United States – the New York City Watershed. Our “Green” is Blue. Forests cover 75% of the Catskill Region and provide a natural filter for streams and reservoirs that supply 1.3 billion gallons of fresh drinking water to over 90% of New York City homes every day. Catskill forests are dominated by a rich diversity of hardwoods including sugar maple, red maple, black cherry, white ash, yellow birch and red oak. Softwoods such as white pine, Eastern hemlock and Eastern red cedar also grow in several areas throughout the region. Presently, 85% of the region’s forestland is in private ownership. Therefore, landowners are encouraged to steward their land in ways that protect the watershed. Compared to regions of similar size, family-forest owners in the Catskills are following the guidance of a long-term forest stewardship plan at a rate over five times the national average. New York City-owned lands and state-managed forests independently certified by the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) and Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) also contribute to the overall wood resource. Currently, over 250,000 acres of forestland in the Catskills are managed for superior water quality, wildlife habitat, outdoor recreation and wood products.

  • ONE of the Largest Producing Lumber Companies in The
    THE WHEELER AND DUSENBURY LUMBER COMPANY OF FOREST AND WARREN COUNTIES; BY SAMUEL A. WILHELM ONE of the largest producing lumber companies in the north- western section of Pennsylvania during the nineteenth cen- tury, as well as one of the most exciting from the standpoint oE daring and pioneering activities, was the Wheeler and Dusenburv Lumber Company located at Stowtown (now Endeavor) in Forest County. This company, the first to open lumber operations along the Tionesta Creek section of Forest County on any noteworthy scale, started in 1837 and ended in 1939, a period of one hundred two years.1 William F. Wheeler, a dominant figure in the company, w\as brought up in a lumber-operating family. He was born in the town of Hancock, Delaware County, New York, on June 13, 1811, of parents who had migrated there from Blandford, Massachusetts.2 His father, in association with others, purchased and cut pinc timber on the hills overlooking the Delaware River and sent it for delivery in the market at Philadelphia. The first raft was " stoved," in raftmen's terms, that is, dashed to pieces and lost; but the owners, still with good credit, continued to cut timber and send it to Philadelphia. In 1813, the Wheeler family moved to Deposit, New York, which was fourteen miles from a tract of timber and sawmills owned by the father. Young William Wheeler's parents had intended that be should be a farmer, but, when the boy was fifteen years old, he went to Philadelphia with his father's lumber and at that time contracted a taste for rafts and the life of a lumberman.

  • Exterior Species Douglas Fir Sapele True Or Genuine Mahogany Teak Wood Species
    Wood Species Exterior Species There are over 100,000 species of wood. Many are indigenous to specific regions while others are found throughout the globe. The one element common to all wood is that every species is comprised of 60% cellulose and 28% lignin. The other 12% is made up of individual consistencies and colors. These attributes determine the best use and application for the lumber produced from a particular tree. Quantum has developed specific guidelines designating wood for interior and exterior applications. With few exceptions, the exterior woods that Quantum recommends are hardwoods with the ability to accept finishes, resist moisture, and exhibit other characteristics that promote durability. Structural integrity begins with wood strength, a combination of density (measured by specific gravity), compressive strength, bending strength, stiffness and hardness. The list below reflects the more popular species used for exterior applications. Douglas Fir Pseudotsuga menziesii – First documented on Vancouver Island in 1791. Douglas Fir is one of the most important woods used in construction. Although a softwood, it is known for its stiffness and strength. Quantum uses only Clear Vertical Grain regardless of finish or application. CVG provides the best stability, most consistent grain, color and long term durability. True or Genuine Swietenia macrophylla – Grown in Southern Mexico to central South America. Much of the Mahogany species referred to as Genuine Mahogany are currently plantation grown in select regions of the world. Mahogany coloring varies from pinkish brown to darker reddish brown that tends to darken with age. Excellent stability and beautiful grain. Sapele Entandrophragma cylindricum - From Central and West Africa.
