Which code does this activity belong in?
NAICS 321213 covers establishments that manufacture engineered wood structural members through fabrication or lamination processes, such as finger-jointed lumber, laminated veneer lumber, parallel strand lumber, and glue-laminated timbers. This code excludes roof and floor trusses, which are classified in Truss Manufacturing, and veneer or plywood products, which belong in Hardwood Veneer and Plywood Manufacturing or Softwood Veneer and Plywood Manufacturing. The key distinction is that this code covers non-truss structural members created by joining or laminating wood components, rather than sheet products or assembled truss frameworks.
