stress rated lumber

Why do so many manufacturers rely on West Fraser for mechanically graded lumber? With 32 North American lumber mills, 14 of which produce MSR or MEL, we run a highly dependable supply chain in both SYP and SPF.

Our ability to identify higher grade lumber imparts predictable strength and consistency to high-performing trusses and other products. Why not let our high production standards support yours?

Truss us – we won’t let you down.


Precision in truss engineering relies on quality lumber from West Fraser:

  • Every piece of MEL and MSR lumber is machine stress-rated to ensure consistent quality.
  • Our testing equipment is calibrated to international standards with stringent controls on wane and warp.
  • Our lumber is tested with internationally recognized continuous, time-tested statistical process control systems. These systems are monitored by the American Lumber Standards Commitee(ALSC) and the Canadian Lumber Standards Accreditation Board (CLSAB) to ensure quality standards are consistently met.
