LMA Timbers hardwood cladding solutions are a mix of class 1 (40 year plus durability) Australian hardwood timbers that have been milled in accordance with NZS 3617 Branz Bulletin 411. These timbers include Grey / Red Iron Bark, Tallowwood, and Spotted Gum. Specifications for all of these timbers are included in this document.

The timber species is Australian Eucalyptus Class 1 hardwood - not to be confused with New Zealand Eucalyptus which is a lot softer and is generally a class 3 timber. The hardwood cladding is kiln dried to between 9-14% moisture (to meet MPI guidelines) and is milled to precision allowing for a superior finish / minimal movement compared to other timber cladding options.

The claddings durability has also been confirmed by Tripti Singh – Scientist at Scion Research – along with copious documentation and research around the world using the Class 1 to 4 System in stating a timbers natural durability.

Building consents have been issued all over New Zealand for the hardwood cladding as an alternative cladding solution. CodeMark / Branz appraisal is currently being pursued. Example Council Consents of BCN_2018_4315 (Christchurch Council), BC161351 (Waimakariri Council) BC182180 (Selwyn Council) and BCO10313586 (Auckland Council) where the hardwood has been used as a primary cladding as an alternative build solution.

Many comparisons are always made between our hardwood cladding and Western Red Cedar so below is a link to the wood solutions page below which has all the specifications on both Cedar and Grey Iron Bark.

By comparing key properties of the two - Grey Iron Bark for example is naturally more durable (>40 years vs 7-15 years for Cedar), higher in density (1120kg/M3 vs 350Kgs M3) and stronger (F27-34 vs F8). The timber is still classified as a light weight cladding coming in at between 23 and 25kgs per m2.

Battens Set Out BattensSet 0 0 . VERTICAL SHIPLAP HARDWOOD CLADDING INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE GUIDE Material Storage:

The cladding will be supplied with weatherproof wrap, we recommend this is inspected for damage during transportation and any damage repaired. Packs should be stored on packers to maintain at least 150mm ground clearance, be supported on dry and clean timber bearers at maximum 900 mm centres and stored on a level surface. Once the packing straps are removed the pack should be stropped tight to maintain pack integrity especially if it is to sit for an extended period of time.

The weatherboards must be kept dry at all times either by storing within an enclosed building or when stored externally an additional secondary cover to the plastic wrapping is required. Care must be taken to avoid damage to edges, ends and the weatherboard surfaces.

Moisture Content In Timber

To meet New Zealand MPI / Customs standards, LMA Timbers Australian Hardwood must present at between 9 and 14% moisture content – this is confirmed through kiln dried certification upon custom clearance.

Throughout New Zealand, we have a variance in our EMC (Equilibrium Moisture Content). Timber is affected by this as it is the relative humidity of the air and air temperature it is in contact with causing it to shrink or expand until it finds its equilibrium.

With this in mind, we highly recommend that in order for the timber to acclimatise to its environment and to help ensure minimal movement once installed that it is stored on the actual building site for a number of weeks and filleted (6mm minimum gap between cladding boards) allowing air to freely flow between the boards.

Please ensure to keep the pack stropped tight once filleted to maintain the timbers integrity, especially if it is going to sit for an extended period of time.

Substrate prep (Refer Selected LMA Hardwood Cladding Detailing)

LMA recommends our hardwood cladding is used over a E2 compliant drained and vented cavity system. Timber castellated horizontal cavity battens at 480mm max vertical spacing are recommended. Either 20mm battens fully supported by structural blocking or 40mm+ structural cavity battens are acceptable. Installation:

Fixings type are either Würth 70mm x 5.5mm Assy Plus Self Drilling Decking Screws (preferred) or 75mm x 3.25mm rose head annular groove S/S or Silica Bronze nails (must be pre drilled). Pre drilling is advised but is a must when closer that 100mm from the end of a board.

Placement of fixing is 35-40mm in from lap edge through the full thickness of the board.

Clinch nails must be used under the lap to maintain a 2mm expansion gap at the rear face at all times.

Timber Oiling of Laps, Weather Groove and Back

All lap joints and ends must be sealed with oil, this includes the board lap and weather groove. In places such as Central Otago where EMC rates are considerably lower at 9 - 10%, the back of the timber cladding must also be oiled.

LMA timber recommends using Dulux Intergrain natural penetrating oil. We have a nationwide deal with Dulux so that you receive up to 20% discount on the reccommend retail price. Please use our cash trade account number when purchasing - LMA Timber 139658.

Joining:

Bottom edges should be cut with an angle of 15deg+ away from the building to create a drip edge.

All board joints should be spliced horizontally with a cut angle of 30deg+ with the splice draining to the exterior face and both cut ends well sealed. An unsupported board overhang of no more than 70mm is recommended.

All boards must be fully fixed off within a reasonable time frame to avoid any movement due to moisture exposure and thermal stresses. Maintenance:

Building owners are responsible for the maintenance of LMA Timbers Hardwood Cladding Systems - both vertical and horizontal. Annual inspections must be made to ensure that all aspects of the cladding system, including flashings remain in a weatherproof condition. Any damaged areas or areas showing signs of deterioration which would allow water ingress, must be repaired immediately. Sealant, coatings, flashings or the weatherboards must be repaired in accordance with the relevant manufacturer’s instructions.

1.0 Annual Timber Cleaning

Regular cleaning (at least annually) of the surface finish with water and a mild detergent is recommended to remove grime, dirt and organic growth (such as mould) to maximise the life and appearance of the cladding.

2.0 Re-coating of Oil / Stain

As our reclaimed Australian Hardwood is a class 1 timber as per AS 5604-2005 Timber—natural durability ratings. This means the timber has 40 year plus durability and technically does not require further oiling / staining as long as our installation guidelines are strictly followed.

However, oiling / staining the timber every 2-3 years will increase its durability to 50 years plus when the oil has a UV stabiliser. It will also help to preserve the original colour of the timber at the time of installation to minimise the silvering off effect due to the strong UV rays we experience in New Zealand.

If no oil / stain is applied over time and the timber has been installed as per the installation guidelines, the timber will naturally silver off without its 40 year durability being compromised.

Health and Safety:

Cutting of LMA Timber cladding must be carried out in well ventilated areas and dust masks, gloves, eye and hearing protection must be worn.

Hi Martin,

The most common, naturally durable, Australian Eucalyptus Ironbark spp. are E. paniculata, E. crebra, E. siderophloia. Based on Australian Standard, AS 5604: 2005, the heartwood of Grey Iron Bark has a natural durability rating of Class 1 for both above and in-ground situations and is suitable as a cladding material.

Durability of New Zealand grown timbers David Page and Tripti Singh

Data collected over many years and from field system (As 5604-2003), which classifies timbers into sites throughout New Zealand were used to classify the four durability classes: durability of timber from locally grown species. The durability classifications were based on in-ground tests . Class I - very durable of small stakes. The suitability of individual species . Class 2 - durable for a range of end uses has been measured using a combination of field and 'in-service' tests around the . Class 3 - moderately durable country. These data support the use of naturally durable . Class 4 - non-durable. species as an alternative to preservative treated ladiata The benchmark testing system used is ground pine. Suggested uses for the species, their suitability to contact stakes, usually 50 or 20 minimetres square. meet the requirements of NZS 3602 (2003) and likely limitations are discussed. All species are classified on the basis of the heartwood durability because sapwood, regardless of tree species, is While the in-ground durability classification non-durable. The proportion of sapwood in a tree may provides a useful guide for above-ground uses other also influence the suitability of a species for particular end factors such as coatings, orientation and exposure uses. For example, Robinia (Robinin pseudoQcaciQ) usually to rainfall have a major influence on the durability has very little sapwood whereas pine species normally of components in above-ground situations. Timber have a high sapwood proportion and heartwood of from naturally durable species exhibits more variable low to moderate durability. Robinia does not therefore resistance to decay organisms than that from ladiata require preservative treatment, but timber from pine pine treated commercially with preservatives. We found species requires it before use in outdoor environments. that the durability classification of some locally grown timbers may be different to that of imported timber of Field and in-service tests the same species.

Vanability associated with exposure conditions penetrating through breaks in a coating may remain trapped in the wood, increasing the potential for decay Ground contact durability is influenced by climate and soil conditions - decay is faster in warmer, moist Table 2: Expected life (years) of naturally durable timbers based environments. Hence many of the stake durability tests On 50 min or 20 mm square testing samples have been duplicated at several sites around the country and results are combined for durability classification. Durability G ound contact stakes Exposed above ground Class In above-ground situations there is usually less of a 50 min 20 mm 50 mm 20 min decay hazard than within-ground, but exposure conditions Class t > 25 > to > 40 > 25 can vary widely.

The rule of thumb is that a species placed in Class 3 Most Class 3 species are only suitable for use away from on the basis of stake test results may have an average lifeground contact. Species in that durability class are loosely similar to Class 2 stakes when used away from ground divided into two groups, having a durability towards the contact, but this will depend very much on exposure top or the bottom of the range. Species towards the top of conditions, as shown in Table 2. Coatings, particularly the range are generally suitab e for non-structural exterior paint coatings, can have a major influence on durability uses, but those towards the bottom are only suitable for by preventing wetting of the wood. They can have the exterior use where they receive some protection from the reverse effect if not well maintained because water weather and are in low decay hazard situations.

Modelling wood processing options for New Zealand : Economic impact analysis Luke Barry and Peter Hall

Abstract

A national-level financial model was used in the Woodscape study to analyse the potential of a range of traditional and emerging wood processing technologies. The model inputs industry sourced techno-economic data on wood processing options and macroeconomic impacts from across New Zealand and, where necessary, the rest of the world to assess the increase in GDP, employment and export earnings from processing wood harvested in this country. This identified a number of traditional and emerging technologies, which offer potentially significant increases for both the individual firm and the wider economy. The Woodscape modelling shows that GDP could increase by almost NZ$1. I billion per annum, almost 4,500 extra jobs could be created, and export earnings could rise by an estimated NZ$2 billion. This was estimated by applying a conservative average increase in GDP, employment and export earnings across Woodscape technologies from on shore processing of an extra 11 million cubic metres of typically exported logs. Increased wood processing has an important role in New Zealand's economic growth. The Woodscape study found that most wood processing options can make a significant contribution to GDP. A number of the options also look attractive for investment based on their return on capital (>20 per cent), cash flow and the market opportunity for their products. Several wood processing options show a labour productivity greater than $200 per hour of employment, coinparable to the highest performing sectors of the economy.

Background has the potential to add significant value to each log harvested. More on shore processing, starting with the The economic impacts reported here were initial increases in production and employment from developed from the Woodscape study. Woodscape this, will have a multiplicative effect throughout the (2012) looked at awide range of wood processing options economy.

Additional processing capacity is assumed to be targeted at the export market as the domestic market A macroeconomic impact or effect refers to is largely saturated and cannot absorb the volume of changes in economic activity in relation to a change in product that could be generated by the development gross output.

Timber is an organic material with a wide variety of physical and mechanical properties. It is important that a timber species is selected which has the properties suitable for its intended use. The information should be used as a guide only as there can be significant variation within a species. Plantation grown hardwoods which are becoming more readily available may also have different properties. This data sheet includes a schedule of the most common timber species available in Australia. Where a species group has been included, the properties scheduled are based on that of the lowest rated species in the group. For a more comprehensive list of timber species, properties and acceptable uses, refer to Construction Timbers in Queensland (CTIQ) www.daff.qld.gov.au.

It is measured in kN and is determined by the Janka hardness test (the higher the number, the greater hardness).
