LVL

Laminated veneer lumber (LVL) is a high-strength engineered wood product made from thin layers of wood bonded with adhesives.
Commonly used for headers, beams, rimboards, and other structural applications, LVL provides superior strength, straightness, and uniformity compared to traditional milled lumber.
Manufactured under controlled conditions, it resists warping, twisting, bowing, and shrinking, ensuring stability and reducing inspection times in construction projects.
As a structural composite lumber, LVL is similar to glued laminated timber (glulam) but offers higher allowable stress.
It serves as a sustainable alternative to conventional lumber, with many options sourced through Sustainable Forestry Initiative programs.
Additionally, LVL products come with a limited lifetime warranty from Lowe's, supporting both performance and sustainability in building applications.
