Spruce Wood 2" X 6" X 104-5/8" KD

A 2x6 spruce board is commonly used in construction. Its actual dimensions are about 1.5 inches by 5.5 inches (38 mm by 140 mm). Spruce, a softwood, is lightweight and strong, with a color ranging from white to pale yellow and a uniform texture. Spruce 2x6s are primarily used for floor joists, roof rafters, and wall studs in larger structures. They are easy to work with, abundant, and cost-effective. However, they require treatment to resist rot and insects in outdoor applications.
