Boise Cascade VERSA-LAM LVL beams, headers and columns eliminate twisting, shrinking and splitting and deliver flatter, quieter floors, better operating doors and windows, more solid staircases, and in general, better homes and structures. Size-matched to AllJoist products and other Boise Cascade products, Versa-Lam offers quick assembly and is precision cut in more than 18 standard sizes. Each beam edge is eased, or smoothed, to avoid splinters. Because of its uniformly high strength, Versa-Lam supports heavier loads than comparably sized dimension lumber. Price-competitive with laminated strand products, it also offers the advantages of an authentic laminated veneer lumber.
