Questions & Answers
Can I use this under a metal roof?
Yes, a 2x3 can be used in a metal roof assembly, but it is usually only appropriate as a light-duty purlin or furring strip when all the design loads (snow, wind, spacing, panel type) are checked and approved by engineering or the metal roof manufacturer. Building codes and industry practice typically assume larger members like 2x4 or 2x6 for roof framing and purlins, especially in areas with snow or higher wind. Regards, Max.
Can it be used outdoors
It can be used outdoors, but it will not last as long as pressure-treated wood. Always keep in mind that prolonged exposure to moisture (such as direct contact with the ground) will cause the wood to decay. Max
