Laminated veneer lumber (LVL) is a type of engineered wood product that is popular in construction for its strength and durability. It is made by bonding multiple layers of thin wood veneers together with adhesive to create a strong and stable structural material. LVL is commonly used in beams, headers, and other load-bearing applications where traditional lumber may not be sufficient. It is known for its high strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to warping, shrinking, and splitting. LVL is typically available in a variety of sizes and can be custom-cut to fit specific project requirements.
Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) beam is crafted from rotary-peeled veneers that undergo drying, sorting, bonding, pressing, and cutting into their final form, offering high strength, stiffness, and dimensional stability.
LVL timber beams find versatile applications throughout entire buildings. They can be swiftly assembled on-site, reducing the burden of heavy lifting.
As an engineered wood product, 90x45 LVL exhibits minimal shrinkage or warping, capable of spanning longer distances and supporting heavier loads compared to traditional timber.
• Its high-strength cross-section enables the creation of slender, elegantly robust structures.
• With low expansion and contraction rates, there are minimal drying losses.
• Exceptional elasticity reduces material weight, preventing settling.
• The efficient use of wood fibers enhances its environmental credentials, making lvl engineered timber highly suitable for prefabrication.
