F17 Structural LVL Timber

Engineered for superior strength, consistency, and structural reliability, F17 Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) is the industry standard for high-load structural framing. Manufactured by bonding multiple thin wood veneers together under heat and pressure with structural adhesive, F17 LVL neutralizes the natural defects found in solid timber—yielding a beam that is lighter, stronger, and significantly straighter.

Designed to perform under heavy structural loads over long spans, F17 LVL provides a stable frame that won't warp, twist, or shrink over time, making it ideal for both residential and commercial construction.

• High Load-Bearing Capacity (F17 Rating): Engineered to deliver higher bending strength and stiffness than standard structural softwood.

• Dimensional Stability: Resists shrinking, twisting, and bowing for straighter walls, level floors, and cleaner finishes.

• Long Span Performance: Enables open-plan architecture by supporting heavier loads across wider spans without requiring mid-span posts.

• Consistent Quality: Uniform density throughout the beam eliminates hidden soft spots and knots.

• Easy Workability: Can be sawn, drilled, and fastened with standard carpentry tools and structural hardware.
