LA · 2016 Standard SpecificationsBook pages 10721072View official source ↗

Guard rail timber species (blockouts/braces) shall be the same as those furnished for the timber posts. The actual finished size of blockouts for round timber posts shall be 5 3/4 inch square, with a tolerance of 1/8 inch plus or minus. Each of the four corners of e ach block shall be machined down to provide a flat 1 inch surface the entire length of the block with a tolerance of 1/4 inch plus or minus. Each block shall be machine concaved to a radius of 3 5/8 inches, and to a depth of 3/4 inch. The size and hole l ocation shall be as shown on the plans . Blockouts shall be of medium grain, at least 4 rings per inch, and free from splits, shakes, compression wood or decay in any form. Individual knots, knot clusters or knots in the same cross section of a face are p ermitted, provided they are sound or firm, and are limited in cumulative width (when measured between lines paralleled to the edges) to no more than one third the width of the face. Grain deviation is limited to 1 inch in 6 inches. The material may be sa wn or surfaced.
