Kenai: Alaska Lumber Grading Training
The purpose of the Alaska Lumber Grading program is to expand Alaskans' ability to use locally harvested and sawn lumber for homebuilding. It does so by establishing a lumber grading training and certification program that allows sawyers to self-grade dimension lumber, which may be accepted as an alternative for lumber identified by a grade mark to satisfy building code requirements in Alaska.
Individuals who complete the one-day training and pass the associated exam will be issued a renewable 5-year certificate allowing them to self-grade dimension lumber for personal use or for sale.
Free. Register using the online form.
Location: Kenai Chamber of Commerce and Visitor Center, 11471 Kenai Spur Highway,
