LVL Beam For Construction Framing Keel

Laminated veneer lumber (LVL) is an engineered wood product that uses multiple layers of thin wood assembled with adhesives. It is typically used for headers, beams, rimboard, and edge-forming material. It offers several advantages over typical milled lumber: Made in a factory under controlled specifications, it is stronger, straighter, and more uniform. Due to its composite nature, it is much less likely than conventional lumber to warp, twist, bow, or shrink. LVL is a type of structural composite lumber, comparable to glued laminated timber (Gluelam) but with a higher allowable stress.


  1. Size: 30 x 50 / 40 x 50 / 25 x 60 x 1200mm / 2400mm or as your request

  2. Length: customized

  3. Material : Sawed Pine, Spruce or poplar

  4. Glue: WBP, Phenolic


Details of the LVL

LVL is short for Laminated Veneer Lumber, which is made of laminated veneer lumber as raw materials. After drying and gluing, according to the grain or most of the grain group billets, and then the plates are laminated by hot pressing. According to the material can be divided into poplar LVL and pine LVL; According to the use can be divided into packaging level LVL, furniture level LVL, building level LVL; It has no structural characteristics of solid wood sawn timber: high strength, toughness, good stability, precise specifications, compared with solid wood sawn timber in strength, toughness improved by 3 times.


Advantages

  1. LVL plate can be the scar joints, cracks and other defects of logs scattered, staggered, thus greatly reducing the impact on the strength, so that its quality is stable and uniform strength & material variability, is small.

  2. The size can be adjusted at will, not affected by the shape and defects of logs. LVL plate can go up to 8 meters. The thickness can go up to 300mm, according to their own material conditions, select size specifications, arbitrary cutting and raw material utilization rates.

  3. LVL processing and wood, sawing, planing, gouging, opening tenon, nail etc.

  4. LVL has insect prevention, corrosion prevention, fire prevention, waterproof and other properties, mainly in the production process of the corresponding pretreatment or use of special adhesive.

  5. LVL has strong seismic performance and shock absorption performance and can resist the fatigue damage caused by periodic stress.

  6. This product is green, pollution-free and in the production process it uses a high quality environmental adhesive.
