Beam and Timber Prices
Here are some common dimensions for timbers and beams that we sell. To determine cost, you’ll need a board foot calculator. Start with the beam length that you need. We categorize them into standard, medium, and long lengths. Next, determine the maximum width. Those two numbers will determine the board foot rate of your beam.
