Does anyone know of a supplier of 202GF in Australia? Anton Gerner no longer carries it.

I've been making timber casement windows and door frames for the house we're building. But havn't had any experience with aluminium. Not sure really where to start. I've talked to aluminium...

Thanks Peter. Sorry I didn't get the jargon all correct. Thought the idea was to be able to ask for help here. I have read a bit about Hyspan - for rough budgeting purposes what should I allow for...

I'm designing a (small) house for my block at Bemboka. Two storey, 8,000mm x 10,000mm out of timbercrete. I'd appreciate some input on bearers and joists for the the second level tongue and groove...
