New Design Values for Southern Pine Remain Under Review ALSC Board of Review Opens 60-Day Comment Period The American Lumber Standard Committee (ALSC) Board of Review deferred decision on approving a recommendation by the Southern Pine Inspection Bureau (SPIB) that would modify design values for visually graded dimension lumber. As announced in an October 19 e-mail: “The Board has determined that (in addition to the October 20 hearing) it will hold a second hearing approximately 60 days later to afford all interested parties an opportunity to comment in person on the technical aspects of the SPIB submission.” The Southern Pine Inspection Bureau (SPIB) had submitted new design values for visually graded Southern Pine dimension lumber, for approval by the American Lumber Standard Committee (ALSC) Board of Review at its October 20 meeting. Some 60 industry representatives attended to hear presentations from affected groups. Attendees represented all major stakeholder groups including lumber producers, component manufacturers, truss plate and software suppliers, builders, contractors, engineers, building officials, building material dealers, universities and government agencies. The ALSC Board of Review heard testimony from 11 speakers: • • • • • • • • • • •

In general, the speakers commented on the process, the available data, and the timing of publishing new design values on notice, and suggested a suitable transition plan would help. The next scheduled ALSC Board of Review hearing will be January 5, 2012 in Washington, DC. “This 60-day comment period will afford all parties time to consider all available data, all technical issues related to the science behind these proposed new values and help the ALSC Board of Review to render some equitable decision in the near future,” stated Adrian Blocker, president of the Southern Forest

Products Association (SFPA), the marketing organization for Southern Pine lumber. In announcing the 60-day comment period, ALSC requested that all interested parties submit their remarks in writing or in person at the January 5, 2012 meeting. “Parties should continued page 6

Remain Under Review

be mindful that the proposed changes are significant and should take steps they deem appropriate in the interim,” the announcement by ALSC President Tom Searles stated. Any interested party can request a copy of SPIB’s submittal from Tom Searles. Requests and comments may be directed to Mr. Searles, by e-mail to alsc@ alsc.org, FAXed to 301/540-8004, or mailed to P.O. Box 210, Germantown, MD 20875. SPIB is the first rules-writing agency to submit new values. Ruleswriting agencies responsible for other species are in different stages for evaluating design values. The new values will ensure that Southern Pine lumber will continue to be a reliable material in the construction of residential and commercial buildings. Upon receiving final approval from ALSC’s Board of Review, SPIB will publish new design values for visually graded Southern Pine dimension lumber. The last major change for visually graded dimension lumber occurred in 1991 when design values for Southern Pine and other North American species were published based on In-Grade testing of full-size samples of commercially produced lumber. Since 1994, SPIB has conducted an annual resource monitoring program developed in collaboration with the U.S. Forest Products Laboratory (FPL). Although the level established to trigger additional testing was never reached, overall trends in the annual test data suggested a possible shift in the resource mix. These trends, along with anecdotal SAWS external information, prompted SPIB to conduct a year-long program of testing and data review. For additional background information plus answers to questions about the proposed new design values for visually graded Southern P i n e d i m e n s i o n l u m b e r, visit www.southernpine.com.

ALSC Sets Jan. 5 Date for Next Hearing on Southern Pine Proposal Will provide final opportunity for interested parties to submit comments

04 Mitek Rail Rider Reduced to $29,900 /FOB TX

Source: PROSALES Information Service Publication date: October 26, 2011

By Brendan Rimetz The American Lumber Standards Committee (ALSC) set Jan. 5 as the date for its second hearing regarding the Southern Pine Inspection Board's (SPIB) proposal to lower load values and potentially devalue visually graded Southern pine. The hearing will provide a final opportunity for people to submit comments on the proposal before a decision is made on it.

7 X42 , 54 O/A. Trackless table design, Pop- up air ejectors, an overhead plate rack, a 9 shelf on each side of the table for plate storage and a riding platform. 24 roll -10HP motor w/electric softstart. Item F1026 Truss Machinery Connections 800-580-6430

"Parties should be mindful that the proposed changes are significant and should take steps they deem appropriate in the interim," ALSC president Tom Searles said. SPIB's proposal was met by outcry from both the construction and building material supply industries. The National Lumber and Building Material Dealers Association said the proposal features no phase-in period and could lower the value of dealers' inventories overnight. Another fear is that the changes could affect the amount of materials required for jobs, thus increasing project price tags. Higher costs could lead to delays or decisions to scrap certain projects, hurting both dealers and builders during a time when there are few projects being started and completed.

Industry Coalition Offers Solution to Issues of Southern Pine Design Value Change SBCA October 21, 2011

At the American Lumber Standards Committee (ALSC) Board of Review meeting yesterday (Oct 20), a strong coalition made up of representatives from SBCA, National Association of Homebuilders (NAHB), NAHB’s Building System Council, the Leading Builders of America, Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC), Truss Plate Institute (TPI) and National Lumber & Building Material Dealers Association (NLBMDA) provided testimony. In representing many of the parties likely to be impacted by changes to Southern Pine Lumber design values, they discussed the potential ramifications of the proposed changes and provided a wide variety of thoughts and perspectives.

Advertiser “Stuff” Thomas McAnally - Publisher October 28th, 2011

Magazine or Newsletter?

800-382-0329

We also recently added articles from industry contributors, thinking it would be nice to give you more than one perspective. Keymark and Madison’s have been providing interesting articles and news for some time. Now SFPA, ALSC, FBMA, SBC, and ProSales are helping us with industry related content. New contributors are welcome and hopefully some of our readers will provide interesting news. One area that is close to my heart and wallet is the Hiring Zone. The “Zone” is where employers can post job openings and candidates can advertiser their availability without using a recruiter like me. Sure, I may lose a job order or candidate once in a while, but I don’t think they are mutually exclusive and can complement each other.

R P ed r u ice ct io n

So, is the Advertiser officially a magazine or still a weekly newsletter? We tried a new format last week that lets you read the Advertiser on line like an e- magazine, rather than the usual PDF file download. At 4 megabits, the PDF was big and taking too long to download.

A slow week was had by all in the North American lumber market as anyone and everyone that was able attended the North American Wholesale Lumbermen’s Association annual convention. This year held in Las Vegas, NV, surely in an attempt to increase attendance, NAWLA provides a great opportunity for lumber industry players to meet face-to-face once a year. In between the heavy drinking and trade show floor visits, lumber traders meet customers to get a feel for the market and hammer out deals for the coming year. Last week the poor sods left behind in lumber sales offices had not much news to report. Volumes of dimension lumber and panel sold continued low, as is normal for this time of year. Prices on benchmark WSPF KD 2x4’s fell $10, or almost 4 per cent, to US$232 mfbm. Lumber inventories throughout the supply chain remain low, but sawmill order files are only for a few days so traders could do nothing to bolster lumber prices. Counter-offers by customers, however, were generally ignored. Demand from China has levelled off from its highs in the first half of this year. The latest indications out of that country show that building projects are beginning to ramp up once again, after a brief respite from July to September. In addition, it seems that lumber ordered in spring from North America has made its way to its final destination, providing an opportunity for China’s importers, transporters and wholesalers to assess needs in the near future.

US September new home sales released this week by the Commerce Department show an almost 6 per cent increase over August. This is not a traditional time of year for Americans to be buying new homes; most home buying activity tends to happen over the summer so families are moved in their new home in time for the kids to start school in September. Despite gloomy assertions by some industry watchers that the US home building industry will continue in a funk because house prices remain low, in reality the reverse is true. Home prices have remained flat for several months in many regions of the US, indicating to savvy buyers that the market has reached bottom. Once home buying activity resumes, even at these low levels, other fencesitters will step into the market. Months’-supply inventory figures are determined by current sales activity. A small increase in home buying activity will quickly burn through the existing home supply. At that point the scope of the so-called shadow inventory, of homes that are empty but have not yet been put on the market, will be revealed.

Revisions to Design Values for Southern Pine Lumber Christina Huerta - Friday, October 21, 2011

Throughout the construction industry in the United States, there is a buzz about the Southern Pine Inspection Bureau (SPIB www.spib.org) proposing revisions to the design values for Southern Pine dimensional lumber. The revisions were submitted to the American Lumber Standards Committee (ALSC www.aslc.org). The ALSC has announced a delay (of approximately 60 days from the October 20, 2010 meeting) in order to hold a second hearing on the issue. It is expected that the ALSC will rule on the changes at a meeting in the near future. If the proposed revisions are approved by the ALSC, it is expected that revised values will be published by the SPIB and included in the publication of the 2012 National Design Specification for Wood Construction (NDS 2012). At this time, it is not clear when the new values will officially go into effect. If the industry does not set an official timeline, then the adoption of the NDS 2012 into the new building codes may govern. The 2012 International Building Code (IBC) and the 2012 International Residential Code (IRC) will likely officially adopt the new values by reference to the NDS 2012. Local building officials and truss design engineers may choose to apply the new design values sooner.

Is your Safety Program Working? Leverage Our Extensive Experience to Gain:

Continual reduction in incident frequency & severity Sustained productivity, quality and customer relations Avoidance of regulatory costs, liability and risk Increased employee retention Strengthened business reputation

The new design values do not affect Machine Rated Lumber, (MSR or MEL). For further information in these regards, please refer to:Southern Pine Council: Southern Pine Design Values

888.519.4130 CALL NOW!

SBCA Issues Response to SPIB and SFPA Regarding Southern Pine Design Value Reductions (www. sbcmag.info) If you are a Keymark customer and would like further information on how we are handling these changes, please refer to our October monthly newsletter or contact us directly at www.keymark.com.

Safety First! Safety Meeting Topics From State Fund CA.

Importance of Safety Training Routine work can dull alertness and a relaxed attitude can replace the caution that existed when the job was new and interesting. In many jobs the same route is traveled daily over the same roads or the same tasks are repeated with little conscious thought. Without some periodic reawakening to the ever-present hazards, lethargy deepens and the odds of an accident occurring can increase.

La Importancia del Entrenamiento de Seguridad El trabajo rutinario puede entorpecer el estar alerta, y la precaución que existía cuando el trabajo era nuevo e interesante puede decaer a una actitud relajada. En muchos empleos se transita la misma ruta diariamente, por los mismos caminos, o se repiten las mismas tareas casi sin pensar. Si no existe un despertar periódico con respecto a los peligros omnipresentes, el letargo se profundiza y pueden aumentar las probabilidades de que ocurra un accidente.

Los trabajadores no siempre reconocerán la importancia del Workers may not always recognize the importance of safety training entrenamiento de seguridad, o pueden pensar que es innecesario porque or think of it as unnecessary because they’ve "been doing it for years." han “estado haciendo esto durante años”. Pero un beneficio importante de But an important benefit of periodic safety training is the reminder that a un entrenamiento periódico de seguridad es el recordatorio de que pueden existir peligros y que nadie es inmune a los danger can exist and the no one is accidentes. Por lo tanto, es importante que immune to accidents. Therefore, los empleados entiendan el propósito de it is important for workers to las sesiones de entrenamiento, por qué les understand the purpose of the serán útiles, y las posibles consecuencias training session, why it will be de no obedecer las reglas y procedimientos useful to them, and what can result de seguridad. from not following safety rules and procedures. El entrenamiento de seguridad deber The safety training should be organized so that the order in which the material is presented will match the steps that should be taken on the job. Make sure every worker understands the training material; not just that they were present or a test was given. Insist on questions from trainees after a session to tell you what did or didnt sink in. This will let you know what has to be reviewed again. If theres a general lack of understanding of hazards or safety rules and practices, schedule another safety meeting or plan a refresher course for a later date. Employees should be able to immediately practice and apply new knowledge and skills. If workers dont understand safety training information well enough to use it on the job, the training has not been effective. There should be immediate feedback if workers are doing their job safely or not. Supervisors should watch employees do their jobs and question them, to identify what they do, or dont, know.

organizarse de manera que se presente el material en el mismo orden de los pasos que se deben tomar en el trabajo. Asegúrese de que cada trabajador entienda el material de entrenamiento; no sólo que se encuentren presentes o que tomen el examen. Insista en que los participantes en el entrenamiento hagan preguntas después de la sesión para indicar lo que han entendido y lo que no han entendido. Esto indica lo que hay que repasar de nuevo. Si existe una falta de comprensión general en cuanto a los peligros o las reglas y prácticas de seguridad, se debe programar otra reunión de seguridad, o un curso de repaso en fecha futura. Los empleados deben ser capaces de aplicar y poner en práctica de inmediato sus nuevos conocimientos y habilidades. Si los empleados no entienden la información proporcionada en el entrenamiento de seguridad, dicho entrenamiento no ha sido efectivo. Debe saberse de inmediato si los trabajadores están haciendo su trabajo de forma segura o no. Los supervisores deben observar a los empleados mientras hacen sus tareas y hacerles preguntas para identificar lo que saben y lo que no saben.
