Make sure if you have any questions to contact us prior to ordering. Understanding Nominal vs Net Sizesīelow you see an actual list of nominal dimensions and actual sizes for our Ipe. If not otherwise indicated all sizes are nominal. So we list every item in the actual size and the nominal size. We have considered not using Nominal Dimensions, however, we decided it would be more confusing for professionals than it would be helpful for novice consumers. As a consumer, it is important to understand the difference. There were some lawsuits against Home Depot and Menards in 2017 that resulted in the Nominal size use being upheld as an industry standard. Actual sizes can vary depending on where the wood is stored and installed due to the expansion and contraction of natural wood. It also addresses the shrinkage and expansion of the boards that is caused by less or more humidity. Simply instead of having to say “let me get three-quarters by three and one-half inches” you can simply say “one by four”. Nominal sizes are simplified ways to reference not actual sizes. For anyone not in the lumber and construction industry, this can be confusing. The entire wood industry uses what is known as nominal sizes.
