LVL load bearing beams are engineered wood products that have transformed the construction industry with their exceptional strength, durability, and versatility. As a leading provider of innovative building solutions, we're here to share the groundbreaking advantages of LVL beams and how they can elevate your next project.
Unlike traditional wood beams, LVL load bearing beams are engineered for superior strength. Their laminated construction combines multiple layers of wood veneers under intense pressure, creating a beam that can withstand heavy loads without bowing or sagging.
Property | Value |
---|---|
Modulus of Elasticity | 1.6-1.8 million psi |
Bending Strength | 3,500-4,000 psi |
Despite their robust strength, LVL load bearing beams are surprisingly lightweight. This makes them easier to transport, install, and manipulate on construction sites, saving you time and effort.
Size (inches) | Weight (lbs/ft) |
---|---|
2x8 | 2.59 |
2x10 | 3.24 |
2x12 | 3.89 |
LVL load bearing beams offer unmatched design flexibility. They can be cut, drilled, and shaped to accommodate virtually any structural requirement. This versatility makes them ideal for a wide range of applications, including:
According to the American Wood Council, the global demand for LVL beams is expected to grow by 5% annually over the next five years. This growth is driven by the increasing demand for sustainable and efficient building materials.
