Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
 
    We operate our business using two reportable segments: Wood Products and Building Materials Distribution. These segments represent distinct businesses that are managed separately because of differing products and services. Each of these businesses requires distinct operating and marketing strategies. Management reviews the performance of the company based on these segments. For a description of the products sold by our segments, see Note 3, Revenues.

    Unallocated corporate costs include corporate support staff services, related assets and liabilities, and pension plan activity. Support services include, but are not limited to, information technology, human resources, finance, accounting, and
legal functions. Specified expenses are allocated to the segments. For many of these allocated expenses, the related assets and liabilities remain in corporate.

    The segments follow the accounting principles described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, one customer accounted for 11% of total sales, when combining sales from Wood Products and BMD to that customer. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, no customers accounted for 10% or more of total sales. Sales to foreign unaffiliated customers were approximately $71 million, $76 million, and $96 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018.

    At December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, and for the years then ended, long-lived assets located in foreign countries and net sales originating in foreign countries were not material.
    
    Wood Products and Building Materials Distribution segment sales to external customers, including related parties, by product line are as follows:

(a)Amounts represent sales to external customers. Sales are calculated after intersegment sales eliminations to our Building Materials Distribution segment, as well as the cost of EWP rebates and sales allowances provided at various stages of the supply chain (including distributors, retail lumberyards, and homebuilders). For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, approximately 80%, 77%, and 74%, respectively, of Wood Products' EWP sales volumes were to our Building Materials Distribution segment.

(b)In fourth quarter 2018, we sold two lumber mills and our particleboard plant located in Northeast Oregon. For additional information, see Note 7, Sale of Manufacturing Facilities.
