Timber comes in several stock forms, including rough sawn, which is freshly cut and has a rough surface; dressed or planed, which is smooth and uniform; and dimensional lumber, which is standardized in size for construction purposes. Additionally, timber can be processed into engineered wood products like plywood, oriented strand board (OSB), and laminated veneer lumber (LVL). These forms cater to various construction and woodworking needs.
Materials come in stock forms so companies can keep stock on hand for when consumers and retailers need them. It also allows retailers to keep the most popular styles, colors, and quantities on-hand and simplifies re-ordering. Stock forms allow companies to keep prices down since orders for custom stock would cost more.
