Our Wood
Should I worry 4X4 wood fence is our cracks in them?
This summer, we built a wooden fence, concrete the basis of our pine 4X4 beams. During the months that followed, some of the 4×4 have obtained along the diagonal cracks in them, some running in an irregular pattern of almost top to bottom, especially on one side of the beam. If this concern us? Are the cracks, continue straight through the 4×4 until they split in two?
If the wood is the guy who was well treated with preservative throughout the section, the cracks should not be a problem. If this is the guy who has been treated only at the surface, cracks may expose some untreated wood to the elements. This will result in premature decay and eventual failure of the wood. You can identify the type of wood you buy the marking of a cut through it to see the color of wood treatment goes along, it is usually a gray or color green. If the wood is still white or yellow in the middle, it is treated outside only. The cracks you describe is quite common for wood located outside and it is mainly a cosmetic issue.
