Overview. Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) is a high-strength engineered wood product used primarily for structural applications. It is comparable in strength to solid timber, concrete and steel and is manufactured by bonding together rotary peeled or sliced thin wood veneers under heat and pressure. LVL was developed in the 1970s and is today used for permanent structural applications including beams, lintels, purlins, truss chords and formwork.
As LVL is primarily used for permanent structural applications it is manufactured with a Type A bond using a phenolic resin-based adhesive (phenol formaldehyde) and is recognisable by its black gluelines. A Type A bond will not deteriorate under wet conditions, heat or cold.
