So they sell their lumber in cubic meters instead of board feet?

Or will it all be particle and wafer board?

I would guess it will be mostly manufactured lumber, like glu-lam beams etc. We use material known as micro lam which is for laminated studs when they get real tall and floor joists etc. in high stress areas when solid sawn lumber wont work and to keep depths down when architectural design dictates.
