        "text": "Common types of wood used for window framing include Douglas Fir, Southern Yellow Pine, and Spruce-Pine-Fir (SPF) lumber. These woods are chosen for their strength, durability, and availability. For headers, engineered lumber products like Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) or Glued Laminated Timber (Glulam) are often preferred due to their superior strength and ability to span wider openings without excessive deflection. The specific type of wood used depends on structural requirements, local building codes, and material availability.",
