P3 Joists™

The P3 Joist™ is an “I”-shaped engineered wood structural member designed for use in residential and commercial floor and roof construction.

P3 Joists™ are prefabricated using SPF MSR lumber flanges and OSB web, which are bonded together with exterior-type adhesives. P3 Joists™ are limited to a L/480 maximum live load deflection for residential and non-residential floor applications.

P3 Joists™ are identified by their depth followed by their series name PJI, and by a designation such as 40 which relates to the joist strength and stiffness. Our P3 Joists™ are manufactured to strict tolerances with the following characteristics.

All our P3 Joists™ are manufactured in conformance with ASTM D5055.

Characteristics

• Flanges are MSR 2×3’s and 2×4’s.
• Webs are OSB, and all are classified as Exposure 1 or Exterior and are 3/8” in thickness or greater.
• All P3 Joist are assembled using exterior‑type adhesives that meet ASTM D 2559 and ASTM D 7247.
• P3 Joist™ are available in eight depths: 9-1/2”, 11-7/8”, 14”, 16”, 18”, 20”, 22” and 24”.
• P3 Joist™ of the same depth are manufactured with various flange widths; flange width is an important design consideration when specifying hangers.
