What timber is use for construction?

It depends considerably on 1) what you are building and 2) where you live. In many countries pine is normally used for the construction of the frame of a house. Wood such as cedar is used for a lot of exterior applications such as window and door trimming and exterior cladding (including front doors). Pine is not used for exterior applications because it rots quickly whereas wood such as cedar (and redwood) is fairly weather resistant. I don't know if this helps, but I hope so.
