    Post MGP versus f grading

    Hi Folks,

    I've got a length of treated pine with the following markings AS2858 669 origin radiated pine S(F7). What does the S(F7) mean and how does it (if it does...) relate to the MGP rating for structural pine?

    S = seasoned
    F7 = visually graded strength group

    Someone please correct me if I am wrong but I think F5=MGP10 and F7=MGP12.
