What an idiot judge....knows nothing about construction
I’m in the industry and have been following this lunacy. 2X4’s began to shrink around 1910. testing showed no discernible lessening of structural strength and more units could be fit on a truck.
The judge is a moron (in the literal sense of the word)who is apparently too highfalutin to step into a lumberyard.
Just tell the judge this is Common Core Construction measurements.......
