como dice Sergio.. en EEUU la madera para construir viene en medidas estandar de 2x4, 2x6, 2x8, 2x10, etc (pulgadas), por 8, 10, 12 o 16 pies de largo.. Son medidad "nominales" (las de 2x4 miden 1.5 x 3.5 en realidad)

Creo que se trata de un typo. Tal como está no le veo sentido, pero si lo tendría "listones/piezas de madera común de 2 x ...", esto es: "... de tal por tal medida".
Debieras consultarlo con el autor de la nota o el webmaster del sitio...
