It was first developed in the 1970&#8217;s and became popular in the subsequent years. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The high strength of LVL lies in its manufacturing process, where thin veneers are layered on top of each other such that the grains of each veneer are oriented in the same direction. The veneering process improves its structural properties by randomizing the variability of the thin sheets or veneers of wood. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: large;\">What are the advantages of LVL?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The biggest advantage of using an LVL is that despite its <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>terrific strength, it is very light. <\/b>Being an engineered product, it <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\">overcomes<\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"> some disadvantages of natural timber like <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>shrinking<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"> and <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>warping<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\">. It is a good replacement for sawn timber because it is comparable to it in terms of strength.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">New-age designers are slowly shifting focus to LVL, as it brings a unique <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>aesthetic feel, <\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\">different from<\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"> regular steel or concrete. As it acts as a carbon sink, it is also a <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>sustainable<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"> forest product.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Since LVL is manufactured with strong resins, glue marks are often visible which can leave a dull, scrubby, patchy look on the surface of the product. But this can be solved by using<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: large;\">suitable coats and paints. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">LVL is ideal for door frames, window frames, joists, truss work, beams, and many more structural applications. Today, modern architects are using it on the exterior of public buildings, inviting favorable reactions from the industry mavens as well as the general public. As a caution, only specially treated and high-quality LVL should be used on the external facade of a building. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">An architectural marvel called Metropol Parasol in Seville, Spain would make you admire the properties of LVL after you see the <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\">fluidity<\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"> in the design of this floating structure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">If you have so far been a Puritan who doesn&#8217;t look beyond natural timber, concrete, or steel, I suggest you give LVL a try. It never fails to make a positive impression on a disbeliever! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">If you want to share your experience of using LVL frames with us, you can do so by posting a comment in the comments section below.
