Sing Post and Beam changes how structures are built. Traditional beams are heavy. However, Sing Post and Beam is lightweight. Solid wood warps. In contrast, Sing Post and Beam stays straight.
Because of patented Sing Core technology, Sing Post and Beam delivers strength, stability, and ease of construction in one system.
How Sing Post and Beam Structures Are Built
The Sing Post and Beam system follows a simple process. As a result, construction becomes faster, safer, and more precise.
Step 1 — We Manufacture the Sing Post and Beam
First, we build every Sing Post and Beam post using our patented core.
Inside each Sing Post and Beam is:
A vertical grain veneer torsion box
Structural skins
Lightweight EPS foam
Solid wood edging
Because of this structure, Sing Post and Beam products act like endless I-beams. Therefore, weight spreads evenly. As a result, the beam resists sagging.
Traditional posts fight gravity. However, Sing Post and Beam works with engineering.
So the benefits are clear:
Straight and warp-free
Strong yet lightweight
Resistant to weather
Stable through temperature changes
Most importantly, Sing Post and Beam posts remain dimensionally stable over time.
Lightweight Sing Post and Beam Structure
Sing Post and Beam can weigh as little as 30% of traditional materials. Therefore, handling is easier. Also, installation is faster.
Step 2 — The Roof Structure Is Built on the Ground
Next, we assemble the roof frame using Sing Post and Beam beams.
Because the beams are lightweight, workers can handle them easily. Also, because they are torsion box engineered, they stay flat. Therefore, the roof structure goes together quickly.
Traditional beams twist. However, Sing Post and Beam stays true flat within .007 inches. As a result, alignment is easier. In addition, fewer corrections are needed later.
So, we build the entire Sing Post and Beam roof system safely on the ground.
Step 3 — Forklifts Lift the Sing Post and Beam Roof
Then, the full roof structure is lifted.
Because Sing Post and Beam is lightweight, forklifts can raise the entire assembly. In contrast, traditional materials would require complex lifting plans.
Furthermore, torsion box rigidity keeps the frame stable during lifting. Therefore, placement becomes smooth and controlled.
Step 4 — The Roof Lands on Four Sing Post and Beam Supports
Now, the structure comes together.
The lifted roof is set onto four primary Sing Post and Beam posts. Because of long-span strength, fewer supports are needed. As a result, open interior space increases.
Moreover, load spreads across the engineered core. Therefore, deflection stays low. Also, geometry remains stable.
No settling. No twisting. Or warping.
Step 5 — Walls Are Added to Complete the Sing Post and Beam Structure
After the Sing Post and Beam frame is in place, walls are added.
Since the structure carries the load, walls are simply enclosure. Therefore, design flexibility increases.
Sing Post and Beam systems are ideal for:
ADUs
Workshops
Garages
Studios
Modular structures
Additional buildings
Why Sing Post and Beam Performs Better
Sing Post and Beam Dimensional Stability
Solid wood moves. However, Sing Post and Beam stays straight. Because of torsion box engineering, movement is minimal.
Sing Post and Beam with Built-In Insulation
Sing Post and Beam includes insulation values from R 3.5 to R 6.5. In contrast, solid wood provides far less.
Precision
Sing Post and Beam remains flatter than solid lumber. Therefore, fit and finish improve.
Weather Resistance
Additionally, Sing Post and Beam resists rot and moisture. So long-term performance improves.
Because of this development, Sing Post and Beam solves major building problems:
Excess weight
Warping
Material movement
Structural inefficiency
The Advantage of Sing Post and Beam
Sing Post and Beam changes workflow.
First, build on the ground. Next, lift once. Then, set in place. Finally, add walls.
Faster. Safer. Lighter. Stronger.
That is why Sing Post and Beam is redefining structural construction.

Introducing the new staple of lumber and hardwood mills, factories and yards:
Sing 2 x 12 Wood Plank
The Sing 2 x 12 is the most versatile eco-friendly hardwood lumber replacement in the world. Now available in Bamboo-style format.
No other wood 2 x 12 can match the performance features of Sing’s 2×12, like:
Lightweight
Straight and true
Twist, cup and warp resistant
Super strong (stronger than steel lb for lb)
Eco-friendly
Sing 2x12s are Flat, Straight and True
Each Sing 2×12 is extremely flat, with no twisting or cracking, unlike solid wood. Sing 2x12s can be used just like any other conventional hardwood, or softwood to build furniture, used as building material for boats, signs, planks, trade show displays, etc…
Sing 2x12s require no tongue-and-groove. Why? Because Sing 2x12s are straight and true, will not warp or twist over time. Therefore, assembling multiple lengths of Sing 2x12s is easy, painless and requires no tongue-and-groove to act as anti-warp control. Sing 2x12s can be joined edge-to-edge with standard carpenter glue, leaving a perfect seam every time, that will last the test of time.
Lumber is unstable. You know what it’s like to try to find a straight piece of lumber… Then, once you use that piece of standard lumber, who’s to say how straight it will be in a year, or ten years? Tounge-and-groove was invented in an attempt to try to deal with the instability of commercially available lumber.
The unparalleled versatility makes Sing Core’s 2×12 the most amazing product to hit the woodworking industry since… the saw.
Sing 2 x 12 plank by itself will be idea to use as
substrate

Sing 2×12 Lumber, Metal and much more….
The Sing 2×12 is not any type of soft wood or hardwood that you’ve ever known before; it is a basic material to build almost everything we use in our daily life.
1 Sing 2 x 12 x 8 foot panel
Why have we developed the Sing 2 x 12 x 8 foot Sing Plank?
The Sing 2×12 is a superior match having the greatest amount of flexibility in diverse applications.
Sing 2x12s can be produced in train load quantities. It has all the features of Sing Panels but at a lower cost. Sing 2 x 12 planks could use as substrate. Sing 2x12s can be edge-glued or end-glued to join and create any length or width. It is easy to append with any skin to accommodate any thickness. It is the most lightweight (1.5 lbs. per linear ft.), true flat and strongest insulated lumber ever invented.
Why have we developed the Bamboo-style Sing 2 x 12 x 12 inch?
The only drawback when cutting 2 x 12 Sing Planks is exposing a portion of the Sing Core. When cutting the Sing 2×12 you need to remove a portion of the Sing Core and add insert a solid edge to end cap the exposed end. We have developed the solution by adding solid wood implants to create a Sing 2 x 12 like bamboo, providing cut points which will not expose Sing Core. It will have solid wood pre-installed at end of the Sing Panel cut point.
Due to the feedback of woodworkers who have heavy production schedules, we developed a new and improved Sing 2×12, that we call the Bamboo 2×12.
In much the same way that bamboo’s strength-cut-points occur naturally, Sing has scientifically redesigned the Sing 2×12 into its most prominent advancement, The Bamboo-style 2×12.
You can see in the drawing (above) that 2 bamboo-like nodes have been put in place in the Sing 2×12 interior in the center-foot-area.
Cutting areas are precisely marked for your convenience. This allows for easy cross-cutting into lengths that are predetermined by the woodworking artist.
For instance, when cutting lengths of 1’, 3’, 4, 5’ or 8’ the nodes (or wood stiles) are pre-installed for convenient cross-cutting into these standard lengths.
Using the standard Sing 2×12, cutting an 8 foot length into two 4 foot lengths, would require the production team or woodworker to install wood styles at the cross-cut point, which may slow-down the production time.
Now, with the new and improved Bamboo-style 2×12, these challenges have been resolved, streamlining the production process
In the example (above) you can see how easy it is to edge-glue (using standard carpenter’s glue) Sing Bamboo 2x12s together into a large panel that could be used as a tabletop, counter, door, etc…
Question: If I need to build a door or table at 36 inch wide x 84 inch x 1.75 inch, what should I use Sing 2×12 plank or Sing Bamboo-style plank?
Answer: The Sing 2×12 Plank, because the Sing Bamboo-style 2×12 added cut-points would be superfluous (plus, the Sing 2×12 is less expensive).
Aesthetically, the Bamboo-style 2×12 and the Sing 2×12 look the same. If you require the Bamboo-style 2×12, you must specify when ordering.
Woodstaves (a narrow length of wood “stave” with a slightly beveled edge) can be utilized to form the exterior of Sing Core. These can be used to replace other types of solid wood building materials.
Standard wood stave exterior measures:
1/8”
Using Sing Core with wood staves is ecologically responsible doe to having the same appearance as solid wood by using fewer natural resources.
Other benefits include:
Material is stronger than (steel) solid wood
Lighter in weight than solid wood
Remains straight and flat
Rot, warp and twist resistant
Using Sing Core with wood staves reduces:
Energy consumption
Production costs
Labor costs
Shipping costs
