FAQS on 400x45 lvl

Q: What are the typical applications of 400x45 LVL beams?

A: 400x45 LVL beams are commonly used in structural framing for roofs, floors, and walls. Their engineered strength makes them ideal for long-span support in residential and commercial projects. They provide dimensional stability compared to traditional lumber.

Q: How does LVL H3 treated wood differ from standard LVL?

A: LVL H3 treated refers to laminated veneer lumber preserved for above-ground exterior use. The H3 treatment protects against insects and moderate moisture exposure. This makes it suitable for outdoor structural elements like deck beams.

Q: What are the advantages of using Kerto LVL products?

A: Kerto LVL offers high strength-to-weight ratio and consistent quality through controlled manufacturing. Its layered construction minimizes warping and splitting. The product is particularly effective for architectural beams and composite structures.

Q: Can 400x45 LVL beams be used for exterior projects?

A: Standard 400x45 LVL requires protective treatment for exterior use. For outdoor applications, specify H3-treated or higher grade LVL products. Proper sealing and maintenance are still recommended for prolonged exposure.

Q: What load capacities do 400x45 LVL beams typically support?

A: Load capacity depends on span length and product specifications from manufacturers. A 400x45 LVL beam can generally support heavier loads than equivalent dimensional lumber. Always consult engineering tables for specific project requirements.
