Laminated Veneer Lumber Strength

Since the post fire strength of the engineered timber has a significant impact on buildings the strength loss due to heat exposure of glued laminated timber glulam and laminated veneer lumber lvl are explored in this paper using a very controlled heating setup which leads to a controlled damage state.
Laminated veneer lumber strength. It is manufactured by bonding rotary peeled or wood veneers that have been sliced thinly under heat and pressure. Lpi laminated veneer lumber product specifications design values 2 floor beam quick reference tables 3 combined header quick reference tables 4 roof header quick reference tables 5 uniform floor load plf tables 6. This strength is gained from the way it was manufactured by bonding sliced thin wood veneers under certain heat and pressure which makes it comparable to solid timber steel and concrete. Versa lam laminated veneer lumber lvl beams and headers eliminate twisting shrinking and splitting and deliver flatter quieter floors and structures.
In addition to being flat and straight engineered studs are strong. Test methods 1 適用範囲 この規格は jas 0701 1 の試験方法について規定する 2 引用規格 次に掲げる規格は この規格に引用されることによって この規格の規定の一部を構成する これら. The complex technological process results in a homogenous material with unique performance. Our versa lam lvl is manufactured in either alexandria lena louisiana in eastern united states or in white city oregon for the western united states.
Laminated veneer lumber part 2. Laminated veneer lumber lvl is a high strength engineered wood product used primarily for structural applications. Lvl properties significantly exceed those of solid wood glulam and high grade timber. Recently i built a home with all lvl studs for a client who wanted the home to withstand wind and shear loads.
Laminated veneer lumber lvl is a type of high strength engineered timber that can be used as an alternative to solid timber concrete and steel for structural applications. Lvl laminated veneer lumber timber is one of the engineered wood systems that is privileged with high strength quality. Lvl laminated veneer lumber is a technologically enhanced and improved high strength structural wood based material.
