However, the information is only useful when the bulletin matches the product and application being considered. Before acting, check what the document covers, which product it applies to and what its limits are. **Five-step check: Product. Version. Application. Assumptions. Limits.** If any of these items do not match the project, use the bulletin to frame the question and seek the appropriate support. [![Engineered wood floor joists in construction](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Dindas-Australia-Website-Techincal-Resources-1024x387.jpg "Engineered Wood Floor Joists in Construction")](https://dindas.com.au/technical-resources/)## 1. Confirm the exact product Match the product name, grade, treatment or variant shown in the bulletin with the product label, delivery information and project documentation. For example, a bulletin for I-joists should not be applied to an LVL beam. Similarly, a general handling guide should not be treated as a member-selection guide. ## 2. Check the title, date and version A saved PDF, printed copy or screenshot may no longer be current. Check the document title, issue date, revision and source location. Where possible, access the current version through Dindas Technical Resources rather than relying on a copy shared between team members or projects. [![Design suite digital planning tool](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/2026-Dindas-Australia-Dindas-Design-Suite-isView-Colour-Coded-View-06_-1024x765.jpeg "Design Suite Digital Planning Tool")](https://dindas.com.au/technical-resources/)## 3. Identify the application Read the introduction and scope before referring to a table or diagram. Confirm whether the bulletin covers design, installation, holes, storage, moisture, treatment, finishing or another specific topic. Then check whether the site condition is within that scope. ## 4. Read the assumptions with the detail Tables and diagrams may depend on member size, support, spacing, loading, exposure, fasteners, orientation or installation sequence. Read the notes and labels connected to the detail. Using a diagram without its notes and assumptions can take the instruction out of context. ![Engineered wood floor system components](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Dindas-Australia-Website-Worksite-Guide-1024x651.jpg "Engineered Wood Floor System Components")## 5. Find the limits and support pathway Warnings, exclusions and advice notes show where a routine instruction stops. If the site condition falls outside the documented scope, a product has been damaged or the project documentation conflicts with the bulletin, pause and follow the appropriate design, technical support or project review pathway. ## A practical way to ask for help Provide the product name and label, document title and revision, and the relevant member or sheet size. Include a marked-up drawing or clear photographs showing the site condition. State the exact decision you need help with. Clear, complete information helps the relevant support team understand the question and identify the appropriate next step. Check **Dindas Technical Resources** for the current document. Record the document title, revision and access date with the project information. [Explore Technical Resources](https://dindas.com.au/technical-resources/) *General guidance only.

A floor joist span table brings together several design inputs, including the design span, joist spacing, loads, deflection limits, bearing and flooring requirements. **Quick answer:** Use a span table to shortlist an I-joist, then confirm that every table assumption matches the project. If the layout or loading falls outside the table’s scope, use the appropriate project-specific design and documentation pathway. [Check the Dindas Interactive I-Joist Span ](https://dindas.com.au/interactive-i-joist-span-tables/)[Tables](https://dindas.com.au/interactive-i-joist-span-tables/) ## What does a floor joist span table tell you? ![Engineered wood floor system](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Dindas-I-Joist-Single-Span.jpg "Engineered Wood Floor System")A span table shows which members may suit a defined set of conditions. It is not a generic answer to “**How far can a floor joist span?**” The result changes when the table assumptions change. Before selecting a member, check: - whether the joist is single-span or continuous - the internal span measurement between structural supports - joist spacing or centres - dead, live and point-load assumptions - the required deflection or floor-performance criteria - minimum bearing and flooring requirements - any cantilevers, concentrated loads or other project-specific details A member shown for one combination of span and spacing should not be applied to a different combination without checking the relevant documentation. ## What affects I-joist size and spacing? Joist depth and flange series work together with spacing and loading. Deeper or different-series members may be available for more demanding layouts, but size alone does not establish suitability. The current DindasJoist range includes depths from 190 to 400 mm and flange-width options of 45, 52, 58 and 90 mm. Not every depth is available in every flange series, so the final selection must match the current product information and span-table result. DindasJoist is intended for internal floor systems and roof rafters in residential and light commercial buildings.

The span distance is measured internally between the structural supports. 2. **Select the relevant project inputs** Choose the building type, floor dead load and preferred deflection that match the project requirements. 3. **Review the joist results** Check the recommended DindasJoist member and maximum joist centres. The selected flooring must also be suitable for the nominated spacing. 4. **Check the complete floor system** Review the stated loads, bearing, restraint, flooring and other installation requirements before carrying the selection into the project documentation. 5. **Confirm the final selection** The interactive results provide preliminary guidance and are not construction documentation. For continuous spans, non-uniform loading, cantilevers or other conditions outside the tool’s scope, refer to the current DindasJoist design documentation or request project-specific support. ## Installation details still affect the floor system ![Engineered wood floor joists in construction](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/DindasJoist-Engineered-I-joist-11-edited-1.jpeg "Engineered Wood Floor Joists in Construction")Correct selection is only one part of floor-system performance. Storage, moisture exposure, bearing, restraint, flooring installation and service penetrations must follow the current guidance. Holes for plumbing, electrical or mechanical services must comply with the Dindas I-joist web-hole charts. Never drill, cut or notch an I-joist flange, or over-cut the web.

One of the most widely used materials in this category is LVL (Laminated Veneer Lumber). At Dindas Australia, LVL forms the backbone of many structural systems used across residential, commercial, and industrial projects. But what exactly is LVL, and how is it made? ## **Understanding LVL** LVL is an engineered wood product manufactured by bonding multiple thin layers of timber veneers together with a strong adhesive under heat and pressure. Each veneer is laid with its grain running in the same direction, creating a product that’s stronger, straighter, and more uniform than traditional sawn timber. This engineered structure gives LVL remarkable consistency and predictable performance, making it ideal for beams, lintels, joists, trusses, and other high-load applications. ## **The Manufacturing Process** Here’s a closer look at how LVL is made: ![Dindas australia what is lvl and how is it made](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Dindas-Australia-What-is-LVL-and-How-is-it-Made_2686839063.jpeg "Dindas Australia What is LVL and How is it Made 2686839063")**1. Veneer Preparation** Logs (usually from sustainably managed plantations) are peeled into thin veneers, often around 3mm thick. These sheets are then dried to the correct moisture level to ensure strong bonding during pressing. ![Dindas australia what is lvl and how is it made](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Dindas-Australia-What-is-LVL-and-How-is-it-Made_2678334155.jpeg "Dindas Australia What is LVL and How is it Made 2678334155")**2. Grading and Selection** Each veneer is visually or mechanically graded for strength and stiffness. Lower-grade veneers might be redirected for other uses, while higher-quality sheets are used for structural LVL. ![Dindas australia what is lvl and how is it made](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Dindas-Australia-What-is-LVL-and-How-is-it-Made_2679257365.jpeg "Dindas Australia What is LVL and How is it Made 2679257365")**3. Adhesive Application** A durable, moisture-resistant adhesive is applied between each veneer. Dindas Australia’s LVL products use Type ‘A’ (marine) bond, known for its exceptional strength and long-term durability. ![Productionlineofthewoodenfloorfactory cncautomaticwoodworking](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Dindas-Australia-What-is-LVL-and-How-is-it-Made_1492962299.jpeg "Production,Line,Of,The,Wooden,Floor,Factory.,Cnc,Automatic,Woodworking")**4. Lay-Up and Pressing** The veneers are stacked with grains aligned in the same direction. They are then pressed together under high temperature and pressure, activating the adhesive and bonding the layers into a single, solid billet. ![Dindas australia what is lvl and how is it made](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Dindas-Australia-What-is-LVL-and-How-is-it-Made_.jpeg "Dindas Australia What is LVL and How is it Made 1529728820")**5. Cutting and Finishing** Once cured, the large LVL billet is cut to standard sizes and lengths (up to 12 metres for Dindas LVL products). Each piece is then trimmed, surface-finished, and treated (if required) for protection against moisture and insects. **6. Quality Testing** Every batch undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure it meets Australian Standards (AS/NZS 4357.2) for structural reliability and performance. This includes checks for density, stiffness, and dimensional accuracy. ![Dindas australia advanced logistics](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Dindas-Australia-Advanced-Logistics-04.jpeg "Dindas Australia - Advanced Logistics 04")## **Why Builders and Engineers Choose LVL** LVL offers several key advantages over traditional sawn timber and other alternatives: - Superior Strength-to-Weight Ratio – Ideal for long spans and high-load applications. - Dimensional Stability – Less prone to warping, twisting, or shrinking. - Consistent Quality – Engineered to deliver predictable performance. - Sustainably Sourced – Made from renewable plantation timber. - Versatile Applications – Suitable for beams, lintels, trusses, joists, and more.

The fixing method, fastener placement and manufacturer requirements all play an important role in helping the connection perform as intended. Dindas Australia recently completed internal prototype testing to assess the suitability of using a [Paslode Impulse PPN Master positive placement nailer](https://www.paslode.com.au/product/paslode-ppn-master/) for BIH237x45 I-Beam Hanger installation. The purpose of the testing was to assess whether this fixing method could provide a suitable alternative to conventional manual nail fixing for the tested BIH hanger configuration. ![Dindas australia measuring a paslode nail height](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/2026-06-Dindas-Australia-Paslode-Test-04.jpeg "Dindas Australia Measuring a paslode nail height")## What was included in the test? The prototype test assembly included [Dindas LVL13.2](https://dindas.com.au/dindas-lvl-13-2/) members used as joist and bearer components, with [Dindas LVL15](https://dindas.com.au/dindaschord-lvl-15/) used as lateral restraint members. The tested fixing method included: - BIH237x45 I-Beam Hangers - [Paslode Impulse PPN Master positive placement nailer](https://www.paslode.com.au/product/paslode-ppn-master/) - 3.75 x 40 mm mechanical galvanised hardened R-head positive placement nails The fasteners used in the prototype testing matched the size specified by the connector manufacturer for the tested hanger. ![Dindas australia steel joist hanger for timber framing](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/2026-06-Dindas-Australia-Paslode-Test-03a.jpeg "Dindas Australia Steel Joist Hanger for Timber Framing")## Why positive placement matters Positive placement nailers are designed for installing metal connectors and hangers with pre-punched holes. The positive placement probe helps align the nail with the hanger hole before firing. When the tool is set up and used correctly, this can help support: - More consistent fastener placement - Fewer missed holes - More efficient hanger installation - Less rework caused by incorrect nail placement - Better mobility compared with compressor and hose-based setups As with any fixing method, the final outcome depends on correct tool setup, operator training, tool maintenance and following the relevant connector and fastener requirements. ![Dindas australia test with paslode cordless nailer for timber framing](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/2026-06-Dindas-Australia-Paslode-Test-01.jpeg "Dindas Australia test with Paslode Cordless Nailer for Timber Framing")## What the prototype testing showed The assessment was based on internal prototype testing. During the testing program, the BIH hanger system was assessed under the required prototype testing process. Based on the completed testing, the BIH hanger system satisfied the acceptance requirements specified in AS 1720.1 for prototype testing. This supports the suitability of the tested positive placement fixing method for the specific BIH237x45 hanger configuration assessed by Dindas Australia. ![Engineered wood floor system](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/2026-06-Dindas-Australia-Paslode-Test-03.jpeg "Engineered Wood Floor System")## Practical considerations for installers The tool evaluation also highlighted several practical considerations for teams using positive placement nailers. Before using this type of tool, installers should consider: - Operator training and familiarity with the tool - Correct seating of the positive placement probe - Routine cleaning and maintenance - Battery and fuel cell management - Availability of spare consumables - Appropriate PPE, including eye and hearing protection - Confirmation that the selected fasteners match the connector manufacturer’s requirements These points are important because a positive placement system can only support installation quality when it is used correctly and in line with the relevant documentation. ## Important scope note This article refers to a specific internal prototype test completed by Dindas Australia using the BIH237x45 I-Beam Hanger, Paslode Impulse PPN Master positive placement nailer and nominated positive placement nails. It summarises the public-facing outcome only and does not replace the full test report, connector manufacturer documentation, project design information or installation requirements. The result should not be treated as a general approval for all hangers, fasteners, tools, timber members or site conditions.

Practical guide for I-Joists and Floor Joists in Australia—rules, tips, and checklists. **Content:** ## A guide on h**ow to cut service holes in engineered I-joists the right way (Australia)** Cutting DindasJoists or any I-Joists for plumbing, electrical, or HVAC should never put your floor system at risk. With engineered I-joists, the rules are straightforward. **When you follow the Dindas Australia manufacturer’s hole charts and basic do’s and don’ts.** One wrong cut can trigger redesigns, propping, delays and potential replacement. Here’s how to keep the job moving and compliant. ### 1) Know your joist anatomy (and the one rule you never break) ![dindas australia dindasjoist engineered i joists structure](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/2025-Dindas-Australia-DindasJoist-Engineered-I-joists-Structure-1024x456.jpg "2025 Dindas Australia - DindasJoist Engineered I-joists Structure")An I-joist has **flanges** (top and bottom) and a **web** (middle). - **Never cut, notch or drill the flanges.** All penetrations go in the web, with a small clearance to the flanges as specified by Dindas. **Why this matters:** The flanges carry the bending forces. Nick a flange and you’ve compromised the member; that’s where “quick fix” turns into costly replacement. ### 2) Plan services before you cut The biggest cause of mistakes is cutting “where the pipe wants to go” instead of **laying out services to suit the hole chart**. - Map out plumbing and cabling runs as soon as joists are down. - Walk the run with the hole chart for your **joist size/series, spacing and design span**. - Modify the route so all penetrations land on **approved hole locations**. Tip: Keep the hole chart on your phone and a laminated copy in the site shed. If the design span changes, re-check—shorter spans can relax minimum distances, but you must still follow the table rules. ### 3) Read the Dindas Australia hole chart like a pro Dindas Australia gives a minimum distance **x** from the **inside face of the nearest support** to the **centre of the hole**. Here’s the workflow: 1. **Pick your hole size** (or the next bigger size shown). 2. **Find your joist series and depth.** 3. Read off **x** and mark it from the inside face of the bearing/hanger. **Worked example:** Need a **Ø 140 mm** round hole in a **240 × 52 mm** Dindas I-joist with **4.0 m** design span? Use the **150 mm** column: **x = 700 mm**, so the hole centre must be ≥ 700 mm from the inside face of the nearest support. ![Dindas i joist cutting guide](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/20017-Dindas-Australia-Technical-Bulletin-Dindas-I-Joist-Web-Holes-01-1024x314.jpg "Dindas I-Joist Cutting Guide") ### 4) The golden site rules (that prevent expensive mistakes) - **Holes go in the web only.** Maintain the specified minimum web-to-flange clearance (no flange cuts). - **Hole spacing:** between two holes, keep at least **2×** the larger diameter (round) or **2×** the longest side (square/rectangular). - **Maximum holes per span:** **three** (any shapes). Don’t turn a span into Swiss cheese. - **Cantilevers:** only **Ø 40 mm round** holes allowed; rectangular/square holes aren’t permitted in cantilevers. - **Square/rectangular holes:** place at mid-web; rectangular options are restricted (single span, **one per span**, and more rules in the table). Avoid over-cut corners—drill corner starters first. - **Grouped round holes:** may be treated as one larger equivalent hole if they fit inside a circumscribed circle per the chart rules. Stick to these and you’ll avoid the classic miscuts that lead to strengthening, plating or full replacement. ### 5) Step-by-step: cutting a clean, compliant hole 1. **Measure from the right reference.** Mark **x** from the **inside face** of the nearest support to the **hole centre**. Scribe the outline at mid-web (or as required for round holes). 2. **Support the web.** Clamp a backing block if you’re worried about tear-out. 3. **Cut, don’t over-cut.** - *Round:* pilot drill, then holesaw/jigsaw on the line. - *Square/rectangular:* drill ~25 mm corner holes first, then cut between them; lightly radius corners to reduce stress. 4. **Verify clearances and spacing.** Double-check the web–flange margin and the 2× rule to other holes. 5. **Protect the frame.** Keep cuts clean and dry; if anything is outside the table, stop and escalate. ### 6) The “never again” list: common mistakes to avoid - **Measuring from the wrong place.** The hole distance **x** always starts at the **inside face** of the nearest support, not the edge of the flooring or the outside of the bearer. - **Nicking the flange.** Even a small nick can be a big problem. There are **no** flange holes or notches. Ever. - **Overcut corners on square/rectangular holes.** Sharp over-cuts create stress raisers. Drill corners, then cut. Don’t swing past the line. - **Too many holes in one span.** You’re capped at **three**. Plan runs so you don’t stack up holes near each other. - **Wrong hole near a cantilever.** Cantilevers are strict: **Ø 40 mm round only.** - **Rectangular hole in the wrong scenario.** Rectangular “duct” holes are **single-span only** and **one per span**. If that doesn’t work, talk to the engineer/NDC before cutting. ### 7) What to do if someone has already cut it wrong ![Dindasjoist wrong cut example](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/DindasJoist-Wrong-cut-Example-1024x600.jpg "DindasJoist Wrong cut Example")1. **Stop work on that joist area.** Don’t load the floor above the mistake. 2. **Record the facts:** joist series/depth, actual span, joist spacing, hole size/shape/location (distance from support), and photos. 3. **Contact Dindas Australia National Design Centre (NDC).** They’ll advise on whether repair is possible or a replacement is required for your specific joist and loading. **Don’t invent a fix on site.** ### 8) Make it easy for your crews (and clients) - **Put the chart in their hands.** Print the Dindas Australia **Web Holes Technical Bulletin** for your joist series and keep a copy with the foreman and plumber/sparkie. - **Brief subs at pre-start.** Five minutes with the hole chart saves five hours later. - **Mark approved hole centres.** On tricky runs (kitchens, bathrooms), pre-mark compliant hole centres before services roll in. - **Direct clients to our resources.** Our Technical Resources hub keeps the latest bulletins and guides in one place. ([dindas.com.au](https://dindas.com.au/technical-resources/)) ### 9) Quick checklist before you drill - Using the **correct Dindas Australia I-Joists web-holes reference chart** for your **joist series/depth, spacing and design span**. - Measured **x** from the **inside face** of the nearest support. - The hole is **in the web only**, with the specified clearance to each flange. - Spacing to any other hole is **≥ 2×** the larger hole’s size. - You’re **within the max holes per span** (three). - For square/rectangular holes: **mid-web, corners drilled, no over-cuts**, and rectangular rules (single span/one per span; no cantilevers) are met. ### 10) Bottom line If you follow the Dindas Australia web-hole tables and basic cutting discipline, you’ll keep floors strong, compliant and on schedule, without the drama of costly repairs. When a run doesn’t fit the chart, **don’t guess**: bring it to the project engineer or the Dindas Australia National Design Centre for job-specific guidance. --- ### Helpful links (for your site pack) - **[Dindas Australia I-Joists Web Holes Reference Chart](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/20017-Dindas-Australia-Technical-Bulletin-Dindas-I-Joist-Web-Holes.pdf):** Hole rules, examples and charts for Dindas I-joists. - **[Dindas Australia Interactive I-Joist Span Tables](https://dindas.com.au/interactive-i-joist-span-tables/):** Online and interactive resource to calculate precisely your floor joist system span distances. - **[Dindas Australia Technical Resources](https://dindas.com.au/technical-resources/):** Latest guides, span tables and bulletins. **Categories:** Product **Tags:** Dindas Australia, DindasJoist, Engineered I-Joist Floor System, Engineered I-Joists, Engineered Wood Specialists, Floor Joist Span Tables, Floor Joists, i joist, I-Joists --- ### [Dindas H3 Pre-Primed LVL: Built for Faster, Cleaner Outdoor Builds](https://dindas.com.au/dindas-h3-pre-primed-lvl-built-for-faster-cleaner-outdoor-builds/) **Published:** February 6, 2026 **Author:** admin **Excerpt:** Factory pre-primed and H3 treated LVL for above-ground outdoor builds. Faster installs, fewer delays, and cleaner results for residential builders. **Content:** ![Dindas h pre primed lvl](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/2026-02-Dindas-Australia-Pre-Primed-H3-LVL-13-Cut-Section-Upscale_2k-1.jpg "Dindas H3 Pre-Primed LVL")External framing is where delays, rework, and weather exposure usually hit hardest. Rain rolls in. Timber twists. On-site priming slows the job down. That’s exactly the problem **Dindas Australia’s H3 Pre-Primed LVL** is designed to solve. This engineered LVL range arrives **H3 treated and factory pre-primed**, ready for above-ground outdoor use during construction. It helps builders move faster, reduce site prep, and protect structural members while the job is still open. ### What Is Dindas H3 Pre-Primed LVL? Dindas H3 Pre-Primed LVL is a **structural engineered laminated veneer lumber** that combines: - **H3 preservative treatment** for above-ground exterior durability - **Factory-applied primer** for protection during construction - **Engineered straightness and consistency** typical of LVL It’s designed for **external, above-ground structural applications** where timber may be exposed to weather before final cladding or coating is installed. Think decks, pergolas, verandahs, external framing, fascias, beams, and exposed members that can **drain and dry**. ### Faster Builds, Fewer Delays One of the biggest advantages of this range is simple: **it arrives ready to install**. Because the LVL is factory primed: - There’s **no on-site priming** - No waiting for undercoats to dry - No weather delays just to seal timber That means framing can start as soon as materials land on site, even if conditions aren’t perfect. For builders juggling tight programs or multiple jobs, removing a whole prep step helps keep schedules on track and reduces downtime between trades. ### Protection During Construction, When It Matters Most Construction is when external timber takes the most punishment. The **H3 treatment** provides resistance to termites and decay in above-ground exterior conditions, while the **factory-applied primer** helps reduce moisture uptake and UV exposure during storage and construction. This combination helps protect LVL members while the structure is exposed, before final coatings are applied. Important note: the primer is a **construction-phase protective coating**, not a finished weatherproof system. It’s there to protect the timber during the build, not replace final detailing or paint systems. ![Modern outdoor pergola with green pre primed h lvl beams by dindas australia](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/2026-01-19-Dindas-Pre-Primed-H3-LVL-02-Upscaled-Final-e1770333950808.jpeg "Modern outdoor pergola with green pre-primed H3 LVL beams by Dindas Australia.")### Straighter Timber, Cleaner Results Like all LVL products, Dindas H3 Pre-Primed LVL is engineered for **strength, straightness, and dimensional consistency**. Compared to traditional outdoor pine: - Less twisting and bowing - Fewer defects - More consistent sizing That translates to: - Faster installation - Less rework - Fewer framing issues later in the build A straighter frame also delivers a cleaner final result, particularly where structural members remain visible. ### Reduced Labour and Fewer Call-Backs By eliminating on-site priming and reducing timber movement, builders can cut: - Labour hours - Material waste - Rework caused by warped or damaged members While no product eliminates issues entirely, engineered LVL significantly **reduces the risk of common site problems** that lead to callbacks and remedial work. ![Pre primed h lvl range](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Dindas-H3-LVL-Range-LVL-132-08.jpeg "Pre-Primed H3 LVL Range")### Professional Finish Straight Off the Pack The factory-applied primer delivers: - A smooth, uniform coating - Consistent coverage across every member - A clean, professional appearance during construction It also provides a reliable base for final paint systems, reducing prep work later in the project. ### Built with Sustainability in Mind Dindas Australia is a **[Carbon Warrior partner](https://dindas.com.au/dindas-sustainability/ "Dindas Sustainability")**, working only with suppliers that hold verified wood source certifications.

That’s where the Future Framing Initiative (FFI) comes in. FFI is developing a new national industry standard for mid-rise timber framing, aimed at improving how lightweight timber framing is designed, assessed, and delivered across Australia. If you build, quote, or manage timber projects, the simple takeaway is this: FFI is trying to reduce uncertainty and make mid-rise timber framing easier to deliver with confidence. ### What is FFI? FFI is led by Forest and Wood Products Australia (FWPA) through WoodSolutions. It brings together the timber supply chain, including designers, engineers, builders, certifiers and educators, to support a more consistent approach to mid-rise timber framing. ### Why does it matters on real jobs Mid-rise builds can slow down when different stakeholders interpret requirements differently. That can lead to redesign, extra checking, or delays once the job is underway. FFI’s intended outcomes include: - A new national standard for mid-rise timber framing - Streamlined compliance pathways across building classes - Faster, lower-cost build times supported by modern methods of construction - A resilient, low-carbon future for timber construction For builders, the value is in clearer expectations and fewer stop-start moments that cost time and money. ### What could improve for builders and project teams? The details will come with the draft standard, but the direction suggests a few practical benefits: Clearer compliance pathways More consistency can support smoother approvals and fewer surprises once plans hit review. Better planning and delivery When requirements are clearer, it’s easier to coordinate framing, trades, and sequencing and reduce rework risk. More mid-rise timber across more project types FFI is also aiming to broaden timber use across building classes, including homes, townhouses, schools, aged care facilities and apartments. More adoption generally lifts confidence across the industry and strengthens repeatable systems. ### Timeline: what happens next? - Draft standard open for industry review: early 2026 - Targeting adoption in the 2029 National Construction Code (NCC), or via state legislation This is not an overnight change, but it is a clear signal of where mid-rise timber framing is heading. ### Dindas Australia’s view At Dindas Australia, we support initiatives that strengthen confidence in timber construction and improve clarity for builders, designers and certifiers. If you’re involved in mid-rise projects, keep an eye out for the draft release and consultation process in early 2026. --- ### Helpful links: - [2025 FFI Information Flyer](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/2025-FFI-information-Flyer.pdf) - [Woodsolutions Website](https://www.woodsolutions.com.au/?utm_campaign=ws_na_na_ffi-flyer_na_bofu_na_na_na&utm_source=flyer&utm_medium=qr&utm_term=&utm_content=na_na_na_na_na) **Categories:** People **Tags:** Dindas Australia, DindasJoist, Engineered Wood Specialists, FWPA, Timber Framing, woodsolutions --- ### [Credit News](https://dindas.com.au/credit-news/) **Published:** June 1, 2021 **Author:** admin **Excerpt:** Stay informed with the latest credit news at Dindas.com.au.

Practical tips for builders, tradies and engineers. **Content:** ![Dindas australia span table design guide lvl floor joists](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Dindas-Australia-Span-Table-Design-Guide-LVL-Floor-Joists.jpg "Dindas Australia - Span Table Design Guide LVL Floor Joists")## Why LVL Span Tables Matter When you’re working with laminated veneer lumber (LVL), one of the first questions is: *how far can this beam go before it needs support?* That’s where LVL span tables come in. They show the maximum distance a beam or joist can cover safely, taking into account size, load and support conditions. For builders and engineers, this means less guesswork and more confidence that the structure meets code requirements. By using a span table correctly, you can avoid oversizing (which costs more) or undersizing (which risks compliance issues). In short, they help you pick the right LVL product the first time and keep your project on track. ## Four Steps to Reading LVL Span Tables 1. **Choose the beam size** – Find the depth and width of the LVL member you plan to use (e.g. 90×45 mm). 2. **Set the load condition** – Identify whether the beam is carrying floor loads, roof loads or a combination. Load widths are shown in the tables for easy reference. 3. **Match the span** – Cross-check the beam size and load condition to see the maximum distance it can span. 4. **Confirm spacing** – Pay attention to the recommended spacing between beams or joists. These influence how much weight the member can safely handle. **Note**: Always ensure the selected span and beam size meet National Building Codes and safety standards. ![Dindas australia how to read the span tables example](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Dindas-Australia-How-To-Read-the-Span-Tables-Example-1024x372.jpg "Dindas Australia - How To Read the Span Tables Example")- In this example, a DLVL 13, 90x45mm with 1200mm load width can span up to 1500mm. - If the load increases to 5400mm, the maximum span reduces to 900mm. - **N/A**: Not Available, which means the Beam does not reach that span value. ## Single vs Continuous Spans Understanding whether your beam acts as a single span or a continuous span is critical when using LVL span tables: - **Single span** – The beam is supported at two points only. - **Continuous span** – The beam is supported at three or more points, sharing the load between multiple supports. Single Span and Continuous Spans must be carefully reviewed during the design of the member. For a member to be considered ‘Continuous’, it shall span at least 2 adjacent spans such that Span 1 is greater than or equal to 0.75 x Span 2. The major span is taken from the continuous span table, e.g. if span 2 = 6.0m, then span 1 is greater than or equal to 4.5m. If this criteria is NOT met, each span must be considered a Single Span for the purpose of obtaining the appropriate member size. ![Dindas australia span table single and continuous span](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/DINDAS2.JPG "Dindas Australia - Span Table - Single and Continuous Span")1. The member is not to be notched or partially cut through at the internal support point. 2. Minimum internal support bearing width may apply. 3. For Cantilever Spans (Overhang Spans), please consult the Dindas Australia Engineering Team. ## Benefits of Using LVL Span Tables - **Save time on site** – Quick reference means fewer delays waiting for calculations. - **Reduce call-backs** – Pre-engineered spans minimise the risk of costly rework. - **Stay compliant** – All values are checked against the latest Australian Standards and the NCC. - **Improve accuracy** – Select the right LVL product for your project without over-engineering. - **Trusted data** – Tables are based on testing and engineering review, giving you peace of mind. ## Where to Find LVL Span Tables While QR codes on Dindas LVL beams link to a flyer for further product information, the complete span tables are hosted online under Technical Resources. Builders, designers and engineers can now access interactive LVL span tables directly through the Dindas Australia website. **Visit the dedicated LVL span tables hub here: [Dindas LVL Span Tables](https://dindas.com.au/lvl-span-tables/)** There you’ll find downloadable span guides, tools to help you size beams and joists quickly, and access to technical advice from our National Design Centre team. **Categories:** Product **Tags:** compliant timber, Continuous Span, Dindas Australia, Engineered Wood Specialists, LVL Beams Span Tables, LVL Span Tables, Single Span --- ### [Changing Construction with DindasJoist Engineered I-Joists](https://dindas.com.au/changing-construction-with-dindasjoist-engineered-i-joists/) **Published:** June 27, 2025 **Author:** admin **Content:** In today’s construction industry, precision and efficiency aren’t just nice extras — they’re essential.

You’ll find DindasJoist performing just as well in a family home as it does in a small commercial build. Each joist is manufactured to line up with Australian Standards (AS/NZS) and to withstand the everyday challenges builders face on site. Their lighter weight makes them easier to handle and allows for longer spans, cutting down the need for extra supports and making open-plan designs more achievable without compromising safety. ![Dindasjoist engineered i joist](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/DindasJoist-Engineered-I-joist-05-1024x768.jpeg "DindasJoist Engineered I-joist 05")## A Focus on Efficiency On any job site, time is money.

Anyone who’s embarked on a construction project understands there’s no shortage of choices out there. Steel, masonry, timber—you name it. But when it comes to building homes in Australia, one material consistently stands out from the crowd. That’s timber! Now, let’s not say this just to tick a box. Timber isn’t just a favourite because it’s easy to work with. It’s a go-to because it’s versatile, practical, and a natural fit for so many Aussie properties. But to convince you fully, let’s take a closer look at why timber framing deserves the top spot on your project checklist and how it stacks up against the competition. ![Dindas australia ewp specialists steel frame house example](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Dindas-Australia-EWP-Specialists-Steel-Frame-House-Example-1024x768.jpeg "Dindas Australia – EWP Specialists – Steel Frame House Example")## Steel Framing: Sturdy But Not Without Flaws Steel framing sounds promising on paper. It’s strong, lightweight, and doesn’t get knocked around by moisture—qualities that might make you think, “Why isn’t everyone using this?” But here’s the catch (well, several catches, actually). First off, steel comes with a heftier price tag than timber. And once you factor in the need for specialised labour and additional insulation—because steel can’t keep heat in or out on its own—it can really inflate your budget. Then there’s rust. Yep, steel might start strong, but over time, moisture can get the better of it, causing rust and adding to maintenance headaches. Oh, and since steel conducts heat like a champ, it creates condensation issues that can complicate things even more. At the end of the day, more than a few builders stick with timber simply because it’s what they know best. Tackling a construction method that requires extra training isn’t exactly appealing when time and money are on the line. ![Dindas australia ewp specialists concrete brick house example](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Dindas-Australia-EWP-Specialists-Concrete-Brick-House-Example-1024x683.jpeg "Dindas Australia – EWP Specialists – Concrete Brick House Example")## Masonry Framing: Solid but Not Always Sensible Masonry is a classic choice—you’ve seen grand old brick houses that have stood untouched for decades. Its durability is undeniable, and it does a fine job of insulating against temperature changes. But here’s the kicker. Masonry is heavy. Transporting it, laying it, and working with it all take a serious toll on time and resources. Let’s not even get started on cracking—if you’ve ever faced crumbling walls or shifting foundations, you know how frustrating it can be. Yet, masonry continues to be a top choice across Australia for both residential and commercial construction. Its enduring popularity lies in its unique combination of strength, durability, and versatility. ![Dindas australia ewp specialists timber frame house](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Dindas-Australia-EWP-Specialists-Timber-Frame-House-1024x683.jpeg "Dindas Australia – EWP Specialists – Timber Frame House")## Timber Framing: A Tried-and-True Champion Now, timber—I could go on about it all day. All biases aside, it’s hard to ignore the list of advantages this material brings to the table. It’s lightweight, incredibly strong for its size, and naturally insulating—so your home stays cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Oh, and did I mention it’s sustainable? Timber is one of the few renewable resources in construction. With suppliers like Dindas Australia sourcing responsibly, you can build guilt-free, knowing you’re doing your bit for the environment. Sure, timber isn’t flawless. Termites and decay can be a concern. But a little preparation turns those issues into non-issues. Treat your timber with something like [Light Organic Solvent Preservative (LOSP)](/dindas-losp-timber-treatments/)—an incredibly effective solution! You’ve got solid, durable, termite-resistant framing that lasts. ## Advantages of Timber Framing Here’s a quick rundown of what makes it unrivalled: - **Sustainability:** Timber naturally regrows over time. And with companies like Dindas Australia only sourcing responsibly, using timber gives you environmental points. - **Natural Insulation:** Heatwaves in summer? Freezing nights in winter? Timber helps keep your home comfortable year-round without you having to crank up the air-con or heater. - **Ease of Construction:** You don’t need a degree in engineering to work with timber. It’s straightforward, fast, and cost-effective when it comes to labour. Big bonus? Quicker construction means moving in sooner. - **Aesthetic Appeal:** There’s just something warm and welcoming about a home with exposed timber beams. Products like Glulam create that perfect balance between functionality and timeless beauty. - **Engineered Excellence:** High-performance timber products like LVL (Laminated Veneer Lumber) and Glulam punch above their weight, offering unrivalled strength and consistency. These are real game-changers in modern construction. - **Durability in Harsh Conditions:** Australia’s outdoor elements are no joke, but with the right treatments (like LOSP), timber holds its own beautifully over the years. To make things easier to compare, check this table that provides a snapshot of the benefits and considerations for each framing material, helping you choose the best option for your next construction project: **Feature****Timber Framing****Steel Framing****Masonry Framing****Temperature Insulation**Naturally insulating, reduces energy costsConducts heat, requires extra insulationExcellent thermal mass, but slow to adapt**Ease of Construction/ Modify on-site**Lightweight and easy to work and modifyLightweight but requires specialised tools to work or modifyHeavy and labour-intensive to work with**Durability**Termite-treated for long-term resilienceResistant to pests, but prone to corrosionExtremely durable, but can crack over time**Aesthetic Appeal**Warm, natural finishModern, industrial lookSolid, robust appearance**Cost-Effectiveness**Affordable and widely availableGenerally more expensive than timberHigh initial cost**Strength-to-Ratio**Moderate\*, suitable for most applications. \**The glulam option can be as strong as steel.*High, ideal for lightweight structuresExcellent, but lower strength-to-weight ratio due to heaviness**Sustainability**Highly sustainable, renewable resourceHighly sustainable, renewable resourceHigh carbon footprint due to production ## The Dindas Australia Advantage Here’s the part I’m particularly proud to share.

Over the years, the construction industry has seen a rise in the use of engineered wood products. These materials have taken the industry by storm, and it is easy to see why. Engineered wood products have completely transformed the way construction is done, from high-rise buildings to more complex structures. In this article, we will discuss why the use of engineered wood products has become increasingly popular and how they can benefit the construction industry. **Strength and Durability** Engineered wood products have high tensile strength, which makes them incredibly durable. Unlike traditional timber, treated engineered wood can withstand harsh weather conditions, pest infestations and fungal attacks better than traditional construction materials like masonry and steel. This durability is especially important when constructing Australian residential and light commercial buildings, where strong materials are essential. **Sustainable** Engineered wood products are more environmentally friendly than many other construction materials. They are made from natural timber, which is a renewable resource. The manufacturing process of engineered wood also generates less waste and uses less energy than traditional construction materials, making it a greener, more sustainable choice for construction. ![Dindas australia dindasjoist engineered i joist](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Dindas-Australia-DindasJoist-Engineered-I-joist-14-1024x683.jpeg "Dindas Australia DindasJoist Engineered I-joist 14")**Cost-Effective** One of the most significant advantages of using engineered wood products is that they are high-performance materials that perform exceptionally well under load and offer a high degree of consistency. These products are designed to strict standards, ensuring reliability and strength in your building projects. Engineered wood products are easy to work with, allowing quicker construction times to speed up the building process and reduce labour costs. An Engineered I-Joist Floor System usually requires less than half the number of joists, with no need for washers and bolts and a reduction in the number of hangers needed compared with traditional timber joists. Maintenance is also improved once the material doesn’t suffer distortion, shrinkage or split. Additionally, because engineered wood is pre-manufactured, construction time is usually shorter, reducing labour costs. ![Dindas lvl stack](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Dindas-LVL-10-stack-1024x768.jpeg "Dindas LVL 10 stack")**Versatility** Engineered wood products come in various shapes, sizes, and designs that can be customised for different construction projects. They can be used for wood flooring, beams, columns, roofs, and wall panels. The versatility of engineered wood products provides architects, engineers and construction contractors with a broader range of design options, making it easier to create complex structures with unique designs. **Reduced Carbon Footprint** Using engineered wood products reduces the carbon footprint of building construction. During the manufacturing process, trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This carbon dioxide is then stored in the wood and remains stored after construction. Additionally, as engineered wood products are recyclable, they can be used in future projects, further reducing waste and carbon emissions. In conclusion, the use of engineered wood products in construction has become increasingly popular in recent years because of its exceptional characteristics such as durability, sustainability, cost-effectiveness, versatility, and its positive impact on reducing the carbon footprint of building construction. With these advantages, engineered wood products are revolutionising the modern construction industry by offering innovative building solutions that are environmentally friendly and cost-saving. Therefore, as a building contractor, using engineered wood products in your next project may be worth considering for a more efficient and sustainable construction process.

Before any walls go up or roofs take shape, that structure relies on the strength beneath it. This is where Dindas LVL Beams shine. These engineered wood products aren’t just support structures; they’re the backbone of quality builds that you can trust to last decades. A recent housing project in regional Victoria comes to mind. The developers needed materials that could handle their commitment to deadlines, their responsibility to the environment, and the unpredictable Australian climate. **Dindas LVL was proposed as a replacement for the steel beams in the project,** enabling carpenters to remain on-site without needing to wait for the steel installation. The outcome? A quicker frame erection, faster progress payments, and considerable time savings throughout the multi-unit construction. These beams didn’t just meet the project’s requirements—they exceeded them. Builders minimised material waste thanks to their precision engineering, which played a big role in hitting the sustainability targets. And feedback from on-site? The product’s easy handling helped streamline workflows, a lifesaver in the face of a tight schedule. What sets Dindas LVL Beams apart is their ability to rise to any challenge, whether it’s heavy loads, fluctuating weather, or complex design elements, these beams stand rock solid. And, beyond their strength, they represent a conscious building choice. Engineered timber not only helps cut down on carbon emissions but also supports sustainable forestry—good for the project and great for the planet.

Then, in a dramatic twist, St Mary’s scored, tying the game and pushing it into overtime. St Mary’s struck first in overtime, but the Tigers, undeterred, responded with a try and a successful conversion in the final minute, sealing their victory at 22-20. This win is a significant milestone for the team and their supporters, including Tom, who expressed heartfelt gratitude: > *“Hi, Team! I would like to thank you all very much for Dindas Australia being the sponsor for my daughter’s team.”* The Western City Tigers’ success is a shining example of the impact of Dindas Australia’s annual sponsorship budget.

Proper assessment and effective repairs are essential for safety and long-term durability. To support you in managing these challenges, this guide shares practical tips and insights from key resources like the **Timber Queensland guide** and the **QBCC contractor guide**. ## Common Timber Challenges Post-Flood When timber is exposed to flooding, builders often face issues like swelling, warping, structural instability, and mould. Left unchecked, these problems can weaken a structure and reduce its lifespan. ## Practical Repair Solutions for Builders - **Start with a Full Inspection** Check for damage such as discolouration, swelling, or decay. Test structural integrity to decide whether timber can be salvaged or needs replacement. The **Timber Queensland guide** offers detailed steps for this process. - **Dry Timber Naturally** Slow, natural drying prevents further damage like splitting. Use ventilation or dehumidifiers, but avoid applying direct heat. - **Remove Mould Safely** Treat timber with fungicides and disinfectants to eliminate mould and bacteria. The **QBCC guide** outlines effective cleaning techniques to prepare timber for repair. - **Replace Damaged Structural Timber** For beams or supports that can’t be saved, replace them with high-quality, moisture-resistant alternatives like pre-treated or engineered timber. This approach extends the lifespan of the structure. - **Adhere to Standards** Follow local building codes to ensure repairs meet safety regulations. Both guides provide clear advice to help with compliance. ## Expert Resources at Your Fingertips Access essential guides to streamline your work: - [Timber Queensland’s guide to flood-damaged timber](https://timberqueensland.com.au/Docs/Flood-repair-guide-Ver-6-March-2025.pdf?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Member-Alert-newwebsite&utm_content=tech+guide+title&utm_source=comms.timberqueensland.com.au) - [QBCC contractor guide for flood recovery](https://www.qbcc.qld.gov.au/) These materials provide step-by-step instructions to guide you through even the toughest repairs. ## Case Study Success A builder in Queensland recently used these resources to restore a heavily flood-damaged home.

Among the most common choices are steel frames and timber frames. While steel frames have their advantages, today, we want to showcase recent research about what is becoming more popular among the two. ![Dindas australia ewp specialists](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Dindas-Australia-EWP-Specialists-43-1024x683.jpeg "Dindas Australia – EWP Specialists – 43")Recent research indicates that timber framing is becoming more popular than steel due to its affordability, fast assembly, adaptability, and renovation ease. But it is the outstanding green benefits that are captivating everyone’s attention in a world with increasing environmental apprehension. Consumers are persuaded by sustainable forestry, responsibly sourced materials, and climate change efforts, as well as the emotional proof of the timber sector. These effects resonate that choosing timber is seen as a way to make the world a better place. Builders recognise the increasing interest in green credentials when selecting materials, with most viewing timber framing as more positive from an environmental standpoint than steel. Timber’s benefits of being renewable, responsibly sourced and removing greenhouse gases from the atmosphere align with its messaging, making it a better choice for builders. Timber is a renewable resource that sustainably grows and harvests, enabling trees to absorb substantial amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This carbon is then locked within the timber until the end of the product’s lifetime, making timber framing carbon positive. Unfortunately, traditional steel framing emits more carbon into the atmosphere than it removes and can’t compare with timber’s eco-friendly nature. In summary, timber framing remains the superior choice over steel framing as a more affordable, versatile and environmentally sustainable option.

Photograph: Elenberg Fraser* **Perth has received the green light to construct what will become the world’s tallest hybrid timber building, the C6 tower. This monumental structure is set to overshadow Melbourne’s 55 Southbank Street, which currently holds the record as Australia’s tallest timber building.** Perth has received the green light to construct what will become the world’s tallest hybrid timber building, the C6 tower. This monumental structure is set to overshadow Melbourne’s 55 Southbank Street, which currently holds the record as Australia’s tallest timber building. The C6 tower, a hybrid engineered wood structure, will stand at an astounding 627-foot (191.2 meters). Approximately 42% of the building will be constructed from engineered timber, marking a significant step forward in sustainable construction practices. The tower is designed by acclaimed architect Elenberg Fraser and will be located at 6 Charles Street, near the Perth Zoo. It is expected to house around 200 apartments within its groundbreaking 50-storey design. Before the approval of the C6 project, 55 Southbank by Bates Smart in Melbourne held the title of the tallest hybrid timber building in Australia.

Uncover the secrets behind our exceptional craftsmanship today! **Content:** Do you ever wonder how we create your awesome looking construction site layouts and details? Well, wonder no more! Thanks to our friends at FTMA, a new article has been published recently written by our very own CTO – John Cannard providing a little insight as to the history and evolution of our design systems. Read here the full article: ### **Why Wait?** by FTMA News | Jul 27, 2021 | Industry News Since its early development and implementation way back in late 2018, Dindas Design Suite or ‘DDS’ as we know it, has been used to design more than 35,000+ projects for the market and counting. Our valued customers throughout this time have experienced the benefit of enhancements we’ve made along the way to help make their lives and operations run more smoothly. We’ve included a simplified Installation Booklet, an enhanced Design Guide, QR code-activated construction details straight from the layouts and, of course, the full power of transparency around designs with 3D modelling. We’ve listened to our key partners and worked with them to produce cleaner and more concise layouts, designing our systems around theirs. As we create and write DDS software updates in-house, we have been able to adapt swiftly to changes throughout the years, both with products and regulatory building standard changes. This adaptability has never been put to the test more than it is today with continued timber shortages and huge supply chain interruptions. Our designers have adapted to substitute and redesign completed projects to ensure that designs can be supplied. All of this wouldn’t have been possible (well, possible, just extremely painful) in the past because of limitations with our prior software. Of course, the importance must not be lost on certification and compliance when substitutes are implemented as rapidly as we have had to and for this reason, we always complete the designs using our best-in-class Quality Assurance processes and design systems. Fast forward from 2018 to 2021, we find ourselves more than ever engaged with our customers and our customers customer – the ‘builder’, thanks to DDS. Being able to take a PDF, DWG, DXF or BIM model from the builder or architect and express that same file back to them in a fully built, engineered 3D model they can navigate through (often in AR – augmented reality) has proven invaluable. Often this has occurred before they have even received the products on site. From the simplest of renovation projects, major builder repeat work, 3 and 4-story multi-res units and even a 500-seat V MAX movie theatre built from LVL and Glulam on top of an existing shopping mall – we have modelled them all through DDS. ![Dindas australia design software](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/dindas-australia-design-software-1024x634.jpg "dindas-australia-design-software")During the design of your project, we carry out performance analyses through DDS, which checks the entire floor system as one in what we call ‘Floor Performance Mode’ or, as some call it ‘, Heat Mapping’ technology. During the design, our EWP designers can view the layout in a coloured overlay determined by several critical performance factors such as short-term deflection, long-term deflection, moment, shear and, of course, vibration. Depending on the performance criteria view the designer is in, the layout will change colours based on performance indicators or isolate a certain area of difference. This is essential information for the designer when designing the simplest floor layout or large complex floor areas with different joist sizes, depths, changes of direction, etc, to ensure we provide a quality performing floor system. It is also the only EWP software available in Australia with this level of full performance analysis. Of course, we recognise that this type of technology, ‘as cool as it is,’ may not be for everyone. Our day-to-day designs, while modelled and checked through 3D, are typically returned with our standard 2-page layout system consisting of a Joist and Beam layout and accompanying a bill of materials list. All the software designs and certifications are backed by our in-house and external consulting engineering teams. If the software cannot do something today but we can complete it by hand calculations, the software will be able to do it tomorrow. This is the true power of adaptability! **So, as the title suggests, “why wait” you can experience all that DDS 3D performance design has to offer on your next project TODAY!** Check us out on our new website, dindas.com.au, which includes a short trailer video of DDS in action, or reach out to us at one of our design centres or at the National Design Centre for more information. ![Dindas australia design software heat map](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/dindas-australia-design-software-Heat-Map-1024x666.jpg "dindas-australia-design-software-Heat-Map")![Dindas australia design software vmax](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/dindas-australia-design-software-VMax-1024x576.jpg "dindas-australia-design-software-VMax")![Dindas australia design software bim house](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/dindas-australia-design-software-BIM-House-1024x661.jpg "dindas-australia-design-software-BIM-House")This article was written by John Cannard for FTMA News.

Not only have there been changes at the NCC (National Construction Code) level recently but also with the Australian Standards – most notably the updated release of the following standards; ### AS 1684.2:2021 ### Residential Timber-Framed Construction, Part 2: Non-Cyclonic Areas This Standard specifies requirements for building practice and the selection, placement and fixing of the various structural elements used in the construction of timber-framed Class 1 and Class 10 buildings as defined by the National Construction Code. The provisions of this Standard also apply to alterations and additions to such buildings. This Standard is to be used in conjunction with the Supplements to this Standard. ### AS 1684.3:2021 ### Residential Timber-Framed Construction, Part 3: Cyclonic Areas This Standard specifies requirements for building practice and the selection, placement and fixing of the various structural elements used in the construction of timber-framed Class 1 and Class 10 buildings as defined by the National Construction Code.

Our commitment to gender equality in the workplace will be demonstrated through our leadership actions and practices and supported by our policies and procedures. At Dindas, we are looking to focus on increasing women at all levels of our business to address the gender imbalance that traditionally exists in the Wholesale and Trade Industry. We will continue to strive to achieve a gender-inclusive environment and become a recognised leader in our industry. This focus on gender will be driven by our leaders, demonstrating Dindas’ commitment to playing a part in improving gender equity across the industry. **What is the Gender Pay Gap?** The gender pay gap is the difference in average between women and men in the workforce. The gender pay gap is a useful proxy for measuring and tracking gender equality across the nation, industry, or within an organisation. In 2024, WGEA has only published median employer gender pay gaps due to the exclusion of CEO and Head of Business remuneration. Measuring gender pay gaps by median allows us to understand the remuneration experience of the typical employee at a workplace, as it is not skewed by exceptionally high or low salaries. The average gender pay gap is a good measure of the collective remuneration of a group. **Dindas Pay Gap Data** At Dindas, our gender pay gap shows the difference between the average and median pay of all women and men. It is not a comparison of like-for-like roles. ![Dindas Australia Median total and base salary GPG](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Dindas-Australia-HR-Gender-incluse-News-Post-1024x732.jpg)This report is based on legal gender categories. We acknowledge that our people may identify differently. **Our Gender Pay Gap Analysis** Our pay gap reflects our current workforce. It is exciting to see that we are continuing to have female employees hold senior positions within our organisation. We are proud to demonstrate that we are industry leaders for women’s participation in senior roles. This is a testament to our leadership’s commitment to bridging the gender pay gap. **Our plan** At Dindas, there are several ways we can continue to ensure the gender pay gap is at the forefront of our minds. We will continue to look at initiatives to attract and retain women while looking at new ways to increase participation within our workforce. The gender pay gap is a complex issue that needs commitment and focus. Some key initiatives that we are focused on are: - Reviewing our recruitment and selection policy and procedures. We are committed to ensuring there is no gender bias in the recruitment process. Dindas is committed to training hiring managers to ensure they are aware of gender bias and discrimination and are equipped with the knowledge required to make informed recruitment and promotion decisions. - Exploring ways we can get more female participation in the production teams. - We are constantly looking for ways to engage with our female workforce and ensure those with caring responsibilities are supported. This involves the implementation of an updated parental leave policy and a new flexible work arrangement policy. These policies aim to create a fair and flexible work culture for people of all genders. - Implementing a consistent approach to remuneration reviews. By implementing a standard framework, we can rely on objective criteria and benchmarks to determine appropriate salary adjustments. Drawing attention to key principles such as gender pay parity. - Conduct annual gender pay gap analysis and action. We will look to constantly review hiring data and ensure we monitor, measure, and continually evaluate. - Allow employees to provide feedback through various avenues such as through our engagement surveys or directly to their Line Manager or our Human Resources team. - Our employees will receive information and updates on our progress and success through internal communication channels. **Categories:** People **Tags:** Dindas Australia, equality, gender pay gap --- ### [Dindas Australia Gets 1 Million Metres of I-Joists](https://dindas.com.au/dindas-australia-receives-1-million-lineal-metres-of-i-joists/) **Published:** November 17, 2022 **Author:** admin **Excerpt:** Dindas Australia proudly receives 1 million meters of JJI-Joists from James Jones & Sons, reinforcing our commitment to quality timber solutions. **Content:** #### James Jones & Sons Timber Systems Division began exporting its JJI-Joists (I-Joists) to Dindas Australia Pty Ltd, a leading distributor of wood products, back in December of last year and this week the milestone of the millionth lineal metre of JJI-Joists was achieved. ![Dindas australia million i joists received](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Dindas-Australia-1-million-i-joists-received-1-1024x1024.jpg "Dindas Australia 1 million i-joists received")“Growing our international distribution network of our JJI-Joists is a big factor in our plans, and our new partnership with Dindas Australia has facilitated this,” said Angus Macfarlane, general manager of James Jones & Sons Timber Systems Division. “James Jones & Sons and Dindas Australia share many synergies, and we are excited to grow our plans in parallel with further production for increased demand in the UK and Europe.” “For over 60 years, the Dindas name and brand have been associated with leading the way in the engineered wood products sector in Australia,” said John Cannard, Dindas Australia’s chief operating officer. “To continually achieve this, we must partner with manufacturing companies that share similar core values,” he continued. “When the opportunity came along to partner with James Jones & Sons, a clear leader in the engineered wood products in Scotland and a five-generation family-owned business, we were very sure that our values aligned. Now, 10 months on, we have just received our one-millionth linear metre of the James Jones I-Beam product, and we couldn’t be more excited. “From the start, the James Jones team have been tremendous partners through this transition, and together, we have created a great new product inclusion to the already trusted Dindas Australia product portfolio,” said Mr Cannard.

Explore expert tips and solutions to protect and enhance your timber for lasting durability. **Content:** When looking for timber treatment solutions that stand the test of time, Dindas Australia is your trusted partner. Our extensive range of timber products, from engineered wood and structural framing to cladding and appearance-grade timber, comes with the assurance of longevity and durability thanks to our advanced LOSP timber treatment processes. ![Dindas australia ewp specialists](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Dindas-Australia-EWP-Specialists-24-768x1024.jpeg "Dindas Australia – EWP Specialists 24")## Superior Protection with LOSP Treatment Complying with Australian Treatment Standard AS1604, we utilise the most advanced, proven [Light Organic Solvent Preservative (LOSP)](/dindas-losp-timber-treatments/ "Light Organic Solvent Preservative (LOSP)"), a completely water-free treatment. This state-of-the-art treatment delivers superior protection against termite and fungal attacks, ensuring your timber projects stay robust and secure for years. Our commitment to using Koppers PROTIM for LOSP timber treatments guarantees\* 25 years of defence against subterranean termites and wood-boring beetles. The LOSP timber treatment option also gives us the advantages of enabling fast turnaround on customer orders, eliminating the need for large, costly storage areas and drying facilities, and ultimately providing our valued consumers with a reliable, cost-effective product. ## Timber Care: Keep Your Timber at Its Best Ensuring your timber stays in top condition requires proper care. All external timber products must be treated in their final shape and form. If any surface is exposed by drilling or cutting, it should be retreated with a suitable end preservative like Protim Solignum XJ clear timber protective preservative. This extra step ensures that the protective treatment remains effective, extending the life of your timber. Rip sawing, thicknessing, and planing are not permissible unless the timber is subsequently re-preserved to meet the original specifications. For the best performance, LOSP treated timber should be kept dry during and after installation. Always make sure to use pesticides safely and thoroughly read the label to avoid any mishaps. ![Dindas australia h and h losp timber treatment chemical chambers](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Dindas-Australia-H2-and-H3-LOSP-timber-treatment-chemical-chambers-1024x634.jpeg "Dindas Australia H2 and H3 LOSP timber treatment chemical chambers")Dindas Australia H2 and H3 LOSP Chemical chambers.## Why Choose Dindas Australia?

Our LVL span tables give you the answer. Use the Dindas Australia LVL Span Table Design Guides to review member options for a range of structural applications. Select the guide that matches the specified Dindas LVL product and grade, then check the application, span, loads, support conditions and other assumptions stated in the relevant table. ![2025 - Dindas Australia - Span Table Design Guide - LVL 13](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/2025-Dindas-Australia-Span-Table-Design-Guide-LVL-13_cover-rbfiwlyl692p2nzbbzjic0twufhufh59f9sxxt6eio.jpg "2025 – Dindas Australia – Span Table Design Guide – LVL 13") ### Backed by Australian Standards - **Pick the right size at first go** – avoid over- or under-engineering. - **Save time on site** – no waiting for calculations. - **Cut call-backs** – ensure spans meet code and perform as expected. - **Stay compliant** – span data tested and engineering-checked. ### Why use Dindas span tables? - Easy-to-read tables built for builders, engineers, and estimators. - Developed with Dindas’ decades of engineered wood expertise. - Supported by our in-house technical team for project-specific queries. - Available nationwide through Dindas Australia’s trusted supply network. - Backed by compliance in accordance with NCC 2022: AS1170.0, AS1170.1, AS1720.1, AS1684.1 & AS4055. ![2025 - Dindas Australia - Span Table Design Guide - LVL 13 pg 29](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/2025-Dindas-Australia-Span-Table-Design-Guide-LVL-13-pg-29-rbfizgezv6yy85uhpptudsz5lfguqhg05cwv8yyhog.jpg "2025 – Dindas Australia – Span Table Design Guide – LVL 13 pg 29") ## How to Read the Span Tables ### 1. Identify the Beam Size: This is the Depth x Width size of the LVL Beam (e.g.: 90x45mm). and it’s usually in the second column, after the Beam Series. ### 2. Determine the Load Condition: Identify the column that represents the indicated type and magnitude of the load the beam will support. (E.g.: 1200mm). This could be floor loads, roof loads or combined loads. ### 3. Find the Span Value: Cross-reference your beam size and load condition to find the maximum allowable span. This value tells you the longest distance that specific LVL beam can safely span under the given load. ### 4. Check Spacing: Some tables also include the spacing between the beams or joists, which affects the effective span. **Note**: Always ensure the selected span and beam size meet National Building Codes and safety standards. ![Dindas australia how to read the span tables example](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Dindas-Australia-How-To-Read-the-Span-Tables-Example-1024x372.jpg "Dindas Australia - How To Read the Span Tables Example") - In this example, a DLVL 13 member measuring 90 x 45 mm has a maximum span of 1,500 mm at a floor load width of 1,200 mm. - When the floor load width increases to 5,400 mm, the maximum span reduces to 900 mm. - **“N/A”**: means a span value is not available for that combination of member size and load condition. Do not estimate a value from the nearest table entry. ## LVL Beams Span Table Guides ### Dindas Australia - LVL 13 Span Table Design Guide [ Download ](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/2025-Dindas-Australia-Span-Table-Design-Guide-LVL-13.pdf) ### Dindas Australia - LVL 14 Span Table Design Guide [ Download ](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/2025-Dindas-Australia-Span-Table-Design-Guide-LVL-14.pdf) ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Where can I find Dindas LVL span tables? Current Dindas LVL Span Table Design Guides are available to download from this page. Use the guide that matches the specified LVL product and grade. Additional product-specific guides may be added as they become available. ### What are LVL span tables used for? LVL span tables help builders, engineers and estimators review member options for beams, joists, rafters, lintels and other LVL applications. Selection depends on the relevant span, load, support conditions and assumptions stated in the guide. ### What size LVL beam do I need? The required LVL member size cannot be determined from span alone. It also depends on the application, loads, load width, support conditions, spacing, LVL product and project requirements. Match these details to the current Dindas span table and project documentation. ### How do I read an LVL span table? Start by identifying the application and loading assumptions. Then match the load width, support conditions and required span to the relevant LVL member size. If the project conditions do not match the assumptions stated in the guide, seek project-specific design support. ### Can I use one span table for every LVL product? No. Use the span table and product documentation that match the specific LVL product, grade, treatment and application. Do not apply values from one LVL product or guide to another unless the current documentation supports it. ### Do LVL span tables replace engineering advice? No. Span tables support member selection within the applications and assumptions stated in the guide. Final selection must also match the project drawings, engineering documentation and site requirements. Projects outside the stated assumptions require project-specific design advice. ### What does “N/A” mean in an LVL span table? “N/A” means that a span value is **N**ot **A**vailable for that combination of member size and load condition in the table. Do not estimate a value from the nearest entry. Review another suitable member option or seek project-specific guidance. ### Why do load width and support conditions matter? Load width and support conditions affect the load carried by the LVL member and therefore its allowable span. For example, a larger load width can reduce the allowable span. Always use the column and conditions that match the project requirements. ## Our Services Range [Dindas Design Suite EWP Design Software VIEW MORE](https://dindas.com.au/dindas-design-suite/) [Dindas Advanced Logistics Hassle-free delivery you can trust.

This application will allow you to look up a suitable Dindas I-Joist product based on your Single Span project requirements. As EWP designers, we understand that our customers and builders have their preferences when it comes to permanent Dead Load Deflection. To help you decide on the best product for your job, we have also included the option to select from a predefined maximum deflection list. Building Type House - Class 1 / 10a only Domestic Unit - Class 1 / 10a only Floor Dead Load m2 40 kg/m2 65 kg/m2 Max Preferred Deflection 6.0 mm 7.5 mm 9.0 mm 11 mm 15 mm Calculate ### Span Type Single Span – Span distance is the INTERNAL measurement between structural supports ### Member Type Single Span Floor Joist ### Basic Loading Data - Flooring + Ceiling 40 kg/m2 OR 65kg/m2 - Floor Live Load = 1.5kPa/1.8kN OR 2.0kPa/1.8kN - Standard AS1720.3 Dynamics for 1.0kN Static Load - Min. End Bearing Length = 35mm - Min. Intermediate Bearing Length = 45 ### Dimensional Data - Top of floor joist restraint: Continuous restraint - Bottom Edge Restraint: max 600mm ![Engineered wood floor system](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Dindas-I-Joist-Single-Span.jpg "Engineered Wood Floor System") ![Interactive i joist span tables](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/DindasJoist-Size-Ranges-Complete.jpg "Interactive I-Joist Span Tables") ### Class 1 Buildings Class 1 buildings are houses. Typically they are standalone single dwellings of a domestic or residential nature. They can also be horizontally attached to other Class 1 buildings, such as terrace houses, rowhouses, or townhouses. In these situations, they must be separated by a wall with fire-resisting and sound insulation properties. The Class 1 classification includes two sub-classifications: Class 1a and Class 1b Max. Centres are the maximum centres that this joist can be installed at. If a joist’s “Max. Centres” is 600mm, the joist can be used at the lower nominated spacings ie; 300mm, 400mm, 480mm, and 600mm centres. If it’s Max. Joist Centres are 300mm, and they can only be used at any joist centres equal to or less than 300mm centres. ### Flooring vs Max. Centres Flooring thickness must be checked before installation to ensure it can span the intended Max. Centre spacings. \* Joists with a Max.Centre spacing of 450mm or less = 19mm min \* Joists with a Max.Centre spacing of 600mm or less = 22mm min ### Bearing It is assumed that the Min. bearing conditions (35mm) or greater have been included in the design. This can be a solid bottom edge bearing (like a wall) or face fixed metal hanger. ### Results These calculation results are only to be used as a handy guide (not for construction) when designing your project joist spans. Final design confirmation and for further design options, including continuous spans or non-uniformly loaded joists, please refer to the Dindas Design Guide or reach out to us at any of our state locations or request information through dindas.com.au. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What are the Dindas interactive I-joist span tables?

Lightweight and ideal for structural and architectural applications. **Content:** # Dindas Glulam Glued Laminated Beam Jump to [ Features ](#features) [ Gallery ](#gallery) [ Specifications ](#specifications) [ Resources ](#resources) [ FAQ ](#faq) [ Our Range ](#range) ![Dindas glulam gl](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Dindas-Glulam-GL18-1024x1024.jpg "Dindas Glulam GL18") ## Dindas Glulam - Glued Laminated Beam ## Visible beauty, high strength and versatility Glue Laminated Beams, or Glulam from Dindas, is a natural structural material that is lighter to handle than the alternatives. It has an intrinsic beauty, is machinable in most cases on-site, and is biodegradable. Several factors influence the choice of building materials, including cost, suitability, and design knowledge. Issues such as resource renewability, energy efficiency, and environmental friendliness are also becoming increasingly important. For environmentally-conscious designers, Glulam is a primary choice of structural material. Substantial research has been conducted on Glulam over the past three decades, and it is now accepted worldwide as a structural material with known behavioural properties. When exposed, a glulam structure adds warmth and beauty to a building. Glulam is commonly used as the finished product, unlike most other structural building materials. ### High Strength - Glulam is stronger and more consistent than traditional timber due to its uniform structure. It has a greater load-carrying capacity than traditional timber and can carry heavy loads over long spans. - It’s lightweight compared to alternatives such as steel and concrete. ### Dimensional Stability - Features a solid construction that is both sturdy and lightweight, ensuring maximum stability and durability. - Glulam is highly resistant to warping, splitting, and shrinkage, making it ideal for use in load-bearing structures where stability is crucial. ### Visible Beauty - Glulam is an excellent choice for creating beautiful spaces. - It looks great when left as a visible structure and can be easily combined with other materials like steel, stone, and concrete. ### Sustainable Sourcing - As a [Carbon Warrior](https://dindas.com.au/dindas-sustainability/) partner, we only work with suppliers with verified Wood Source Certifications for responsible and sustainable timber. - Chain of Custody certification compliant for well-managed and sustainable forests.

Ancillary building products are the supporting materials used alongside primary framing and flooring products, such as web stiffeners, rimboard, blocker filler, joist protection, flooring sheets, bracing products, hangers, fasteners and specialist accessories. ### What ancillary products does Dindas offer? The Dindas ancillary range includes products such as web stiffeners, rimboard, blocker filler, joist protection products, fibre cement flooring, particleboard flooring, bracing products, framing hangers, structural fasteners and specialty accessories. ### Why use ancillary products from the same framing supplier? Using compatible support products can help builders and merchants coordinate framing, flooring, bracing and fixing requirements through one supply pathway. ### Does Dindas supply flooring-related ancillary products? Yes.

According to Australian Standard AS1720.1 and the Building Code of Australia, this rating measures a wood’s ability to grip tightly onto a nail, screw, or bolt – the lower the JD number, the stronger the wood. This strength and security make DindasChord LVL 15 ideal for high-load-bearing components in Australian frame and truss manufacturing, delivering a cost-effective solution with smaller and cheaper connections to our customers. ## DindasChord LVL 15 - The Perfect Choice for Roof Trusses DindasChord LVL 15 has the strongest grip on nail plate teeth among all LVL ranges at Dindas Australia. This translates to a need for fewer nail plate teeth to achieve the same level of connection strength, allowing for the use of smaller and more affordable nail plates. Opting for larger nail plates requires a deeper and more expensive bottom chord, while choosing smaller nail plates means a more cost-effective and manageable bottom chord that is easier to pre-camber and position during manufacturing. With DindasChord LVL 15, the smaller nail plates provide a more cost-efficient solution for the bottom chord, achieving the same level of connection strength with smaller and cheaper connection brackets. Keep in mind that DindasChord LVL 15 is JD3 compliant, delivering superior grip capabilities for nails, screws, and bolts. Choose DindasChord LVL 15 for greater savings and quality results. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is DindasChord LVL 15 designed for?

We prioritise reducing our environmental footprint through responsible product development. **Content:** # Sustainability #### It starts with the planet! ## At Dindas, we feel good knowing that we responsibly source and deliver products for our customers, which helps reduce our carbon footprint. Our valued manufacturing partners share in our desire to be sustainably responsible and continue to push forward harnessing technology to deliver better, more efficient engineered wood products. ![Padded logo option](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/padded_logo-option-2-1024x610.png "padded_logo option 2") Dindas Australia has always taken our environmental responsibilities as a timber wholesaler very seriously. Our strategic timber manufacturing partners share in our sustainability vision. Together, we’re committed to applying sustainable practices across all aspects of our business, from manufacturing processes to safe, healthy working conditions for our staff. As a Carbon Warrior partner, we are committed to mitigating the building and construction industry’s impact on climate change with timber as a versatile solution to decrease material cycle emissions by up to 80% by 2050. We, together with all chosen partners and suppliers, are truly committed to sustainable forest management, generating over 230 million kilowatt-hours of power. ## Partners Sustainability In any given year, our partner supplier, [Roseburg](https://www.roseburg.com/), harvests approximately 2% of its 600,000 acres of timberland to supply local manufacturing operations. The foresters replant 6 million new trees annually, contributing to an average growth rate of 7%. This means not only is Roseburg providing local wood to fulfil production demand, but we are also simultaneously adding more trees to the local forests every year. We do all of this while protecting and investing in our water, soil, fish and wildlife resources. Roseburg is truly committed to sustainable forest management. ## Vertically Integrated Manufacturing Roseburg’s vertically integrated manufacturing system ensures stable and reliable access to our high-quality wood products for our clients worldwide. They grow their own timber, which feeds their many mills, allowing us to be self-sufficient and resilient in all conditions. Logs that enter our plywood facilities are peeled for veneer and laid up into a wide product offering of hardwood and softwood plywood panels. Our state-of-the-art sawmill uses the most advanced technology to maximize the use of wood fibre in the production of timber. Both timber and veneer products supply our engineered wood plants in the production of LVL and I-joists. Our facilities send their residuals to our particleboard and MDF plants, where we reuse over 1 million tons of wood residual material every year. Any excess wood residuals are converted into green energy that powers our manufacturing plants in a zero-waste loop that makes the most of every tree. In 2020, this process generated over 230 million kilowatt-hours of power. ## From the ground up No matter how long we’ve been working on forest products, the forests have been doing it much longer. So, we try to be as forward-thinking as humanly possible. This goes for timberland management, new market development, and product anticipation. Just like the forest, we’re in the business of growing. Healthy forests result from healthy land, and we take care of both. Our ability to harvest trees directly results from our strengths in tree planting and tree growing. We care for our forests by cultivating healthy soil and clean waters. A comprehensive logging and tracking system monitors the growth of our trees, supplemented by full-scale reforestation and stand improvement programs. The more we know about forest lands, the more we can do to keep them healthy. The healthier they are, the healthier our business. Call us tree huggers if you like. We don’t mind. We love trees. Wood never ceases to amaze us, and we’re always finding new ways to put it to good use. We’re proud to walk you through our closed-loop system, from tree to tree. ![Australian koala in its natural habitat of gumtree utc](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/australian-koala-in-its-natural-habitat-of-gumtree-2021-08-26-15-59-42-utc.jpeg "australian-koala-in-its-natural-habitat-of-gumtree-2021-08-26-15-59-42-utc") [ ](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/amidst-the-vines-2021-08-27-14-37-08-utc.jpeg) [ ](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/uluru-australia-2021-08-26-17-04-31-utc.jpeg) [ ](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/into-the-forest-2021-08-26-12-09-57-utc.jpeg) [ ](https://dindas.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/umbrella-on-the-beach-beach-and-sand-background-f-2022-01-26-23-48-58-utc.jpeg) ## Our Commitment to Sustainable Practices and Certifications At Dindas, we understand the importance of responsible sourcing and sustaining the environment.

These Standard Trading Terms shall apply to the exclusion of all other terms and conditions, including but not limited to any terms and conditions of the Customer. Dindas will not be bound by any terms attached to an Order, and the Customer agrees that those terms are excluded. 2. No goods and services will be supplied by Dindas to the Customer on any other terms or conditions other than those set out in this document. 3. Dindas will only offer goods and services and credit terms once a completed official Dindas “Application for Commercial Credit Account’’ has been completed and subsequently approved by Dindas and/or an established account has already been opened as of the 30th of January, 2012. 4. Any subsequent store locations must also be approved by Dindas before Dindas goods and services can be distributed to another Customer outlet. 5. The granting of credit terms for new or existing accounts is at Dindas’ discretion, and Dindas may withdraw or vary credit terms at any time. 6. Dindas reserves the right to refuse or cease supply to any Customer or prospective Customer, upon which time the full account will become due and payable. 7. Dindas reserves the right to review and change Customer credit limits as Dindas sees fit. #### Orders 8. All Orders are subject to acceptance by Dindas. 9. Dindas may require payment of an initial amount (“the Initial amount”) by the Customer upon an Order or Request being submitted to it by a Customer. In circumstances where payment of an Initial Amount is required by Dindas, then acceptance of the Order or Request will not be made by Dindas until such time as the payment of the Initial Amount has been made by the Customer to Dindas. 10. There is a wide range of laminated veneer lumber (LVL) goods (and non-LVL goods) with similar structural properties that, in the absence of a standard stress grade nomenclature, may be specified by brand name. It is a widespread industry practice to assume such specification allows for substitution with other structural LVL goods (or non-LVL goods in the case of non-LVL goods) with principal “stress grade related” characteristic values equal to or exceeding those published for the specified goods. Unless substitution is specifically excluded by the Customer in writing at the time of quotation and/ or supply, Dindas may quote for and /or supply a substitute brand in accordance with the allowed described industry practice. #### Cancellation of Orders 11. The following shall apply in relation to the cancellation of orders: a) Orders placed with Dindas by the Customer shall not be cancelled without prior written approval of Dindas; b) A request for cancellation will not be considered unless made in writing by the Customer to Dindas and received by Dindas not less than seven (7) days prior to the scheduled delivery date; c) Special Make-Up Orders and Custom Product Orders may not be cancelled; and d) In the event that Dindas accepts the cancellation of an order, Dindas shall be entitled to charge reasonable fees for the cost of work and materials and/or any administration costs incurred by Dindas in preparing the order. #### Payment Terms 12. Goods and services invoiced between the 1st and the last day of the month for goods and services supplied on credit will be charged as a current month and are due for payment no later than the last day of the month following the invoice date or such date as is otherwise agreed in writing. 13. Customers must send Dindas remittance advice identifying invoices being paid at the time of making payment. #### Defaults 14. Should the Customer fail to pay an account by the due date: a) Dindas may charge interest on any overdue invoice at the penalty rate fixed under the Penalty Interest Rates Act 1983 (VIC), calculated and payable daily, compounded from the due date until the invoice is paid in full; b) Any discounts that apply (off-invoice discount, rebates and settlement discount) may be disallowed if payment is not received on or before the date required in accordance with these terms. Any disallowed discounts will be due and payable immediately; c) Where any part of the trading account has not been paid within the time specified in this Agreement and has fallen into arrears, then the totality of the account, whether or not in arrears, shall become immediately due and payable; d) The Customer’s account may, at Dindas’ discretion, be subject to suspension of supply of goods and services and services or permanent closure; e) Dindas may take legal action to recoup debt, which is likely to result in the closure of the account; and f) The Customer shall also be liable to pay all costs and expenses to Dindas on demand (including without limitation all legal costs on a solicitor/own client basis) and all mercantile agents fees incurred by Dindas in recovering any amounts outstanding. 15. Where any person has a financial interest in two or more Dindas Accounts (“inter-related accounts”) and any one of the inter-related accounts fails to observe these trading terms, then all inter-related accounts may be subject to suspension of supply and account cancellation procedures and invoices rendered to all inter-related accounts shall become immediately due and payable. 16. An account may be subject to suspension or closure if the Customer breaches these Standard Trading Terms or where any other guidelines or policies issued from time to time are not observed. 17. Any account together with any inter-related account may be immediately and permanently closed if the Customer: a) Sells or offers to sell or purchase counterfeit Dindas goods and services; b) Engages in deceptive or illegal conduct that has an adverse effect on Dindas; or c) On-sells or supplies Dindas goods and services to or purchases Dindas goods and services from non-approved outlets. 18. Should an account be closed, Dindas may immediately reclaim any advertising or point-of-sale material incorporating Dindas Trade Marks or other Dindas intellectual property that has previously been supplied, and the Customer irrevocably grants permission for Dindas servants and agents to enter Its premises to reclaim such material. #### Freight and Administrative Charges 19. If a Dindas invoice specifies that it is Dindas’ responsibility to deliver goods and services to the Customer or it is otherwise agreed that Dindas will deliver the goods and services to the Customer, the following will apply: a) Dindas will be entitled to deliver the goods and services by way of instalments; b) Dindas is entitled to payment of a delivery fee by the Customer; c) Delivery times advised to the Customer are estimates only, and Dindas will not be liable for any loss, damage or delay suffered or incurred by the Customer or its clients arising from late or non-delivery of the goods and services; and d) If the Customer does not accept delivery of the goods and services, the Customer has no entitlement to be repaid the Initial Amount, and Dindas, in addition, will be entitled to pursue the Customer pursuant to its rights under these Standard Trading Terms and at law. 20. Where Customer orders are below a minimum commercial value determined by Dindas Then, Dindas may also levy an administration fee for each delivery.

The following rules apply in order for Customer returns claims to be accepted: a) The return of goods will not be accepted without prior authorisation from Dindas or its authorised representative, and for this to occur, a Dindas Return Authorisation must be obtained before returning any product (including faulty product) by contacting the Customer Service Department in the state where these goods were purchased. b) Returns of unpacked goods will not be accepted; c) In the event that Dindas authorises a return of goods, no claim for the same shall be considered unless: (i) The goods are returned in the original packaging and in good order and condition; (ii) All price stickers, security devices, or other non-Dindas labelling must be removed; otherwise, returns will not be accepted, or a charge for removal will apply; (iii) The goods are accompanied by documentation showing: a.
