PWT Treated LVLs 1-1/2"x10"

PWT Treated LVLs 1-1/2"x10"

9.5" true height treated 2.0E LVL commonly used for extra-long beam spans, treated specifically for outdoor use. 

G-tape is recommended to cover any edges that decking will be fastened to, for extra protection. 

LVLs are custom cut for each order, and therefore are NOT RETURNABLE.

Single 1-1/2"x10" joists spaced 16" O.C. can span 14'11" between a flush beam and a ledger.

A triple 1-1/2"x10" flush beam can be used to make a 12'x13' deck with only two corner posts, or a 14'x26' deck with two corner posts and one center post (assuming a 50/10 pound live/dead load).

Always consult an engineer or your city inspector when building your deck!
