PWT's patented TRU-CORE technology treats the entire LVL cross-section uniformly, with no untreated core, complete rot and insect protection throughout.

Superior Strength and Long Span Capability

Grain-aligned veneers bonded under heat and pressure create a stronger, straighter beam that spans further with fewer intermediate posts.

No Field Treatment Needed After Cutting

Professional Installation Tips

Follow these five key practices for a safe, code-compliant PWT-treated LVL installation on any Missouri deck project.

1

Store Wrapped, Off Ground, and Properly Stacked

Keep PWT LVL wrapped, elevated, and stacked before installation to protect moisture content and prevent swelling on Missouri job sites.

2

Coat Drilled Holes and Exposed Areas With Sealer

No end-cut treatment is required, but coat all drilled holes and exposed cut areas with sealer or paint where moisture contact is a concern.

3

Confirm Fastener and Connector Ratings for Exterior Use

PWT LVL does not corrode hardware, but always verify connector coatings are rated for exterior or high-humidity framing environments before installation.

4

Provide Continuous Lateral Restraint on All Beams

All PWT LVL beams require continuous lateral restraint of the compression edge, maximum unbraced length of 24 inches, provided by anchored sheathing or framing.

5

Always Consult Span Charts Before Sizing Beams

Never size LVL beams from memory. Always reference PWT span charts and design values to confirm load capacity and full code compliance on every Missouri project.
