As another poster pointed out: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39691875 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39691875 Giant Redwood is not good for construction apparently Coast Redwood on the other hand is very good. I wanted to point out to anyone interested that European Redwood is unrelated totally. It is available in building supplies as a joinery timber, but is not a kind of tree. Redwood is from pine. Whitewood (construction timber) is from spruce .
