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 .
