Manufacturer Furniture Poplar LVL

LVL was first used to make airplane propellers and other high-strength aircraft parts during World War II.

The term veneer was somewhat synonymous with plywood prior to the 1970s. But all that began to change during the 70s when Art Troutner and Herold Thomas (in the USA) used parallel laminated plies of veneer without crossbanding (cross-lamination) to form the top and bottom flanges of structural I-beam shaped trusses and joists. Troutner and Thomas officially established their company, presently known as TJ International (USA), in early 1960 to sell an unusual new product called "truss joists". This open-web truss used machine stress rated timber as top and bottom chords. These chords were connected by steel webbing. This remarkable new product carried more load per pound of its own weight than any other structural product then available.

Troutner continued to improve the open-web product and invent additional lumber-based products. A unique floor joist designed for the upper-end residential market was soon developed. A connecting web of plywood replaced the open-web steel tubing. The result was a structurally efficient I-shape that concentrated the wood at the top and bottom where it is most needed for strength and support.

The market was ready for this product and sales climbed. The product’s light weight, strength, uniformity, and ability to span long distances made it an ideal substitute for solid sawn timber.
