The Timberweld plant is conveniently located for truck and rail service between major lumber sources and the markets. It is in the dry clean Montana climate. Species include; Douglas Fir, Alaska Cedar, and Western Red Cedar. A licensed Timberweld grader checks every board for moisture content, density, knot structure, and slope of grain to determine the laminating grade required for placement in different fiber stress and deflection combinations required for beams, arches, and columns.

Assembly begins with the structural finger joint.

The Timberweld finger joint is one of the highest rated joints in the industry. It provides strong and continuous tension laminations to the full length of the beam or arch. Timberweld joints are tested daily and records kept on all production in compliance with ANSI and AITC standards.
