Product Description

The 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) 2.3E is a high-performance engineered wood solution designed for heavy axial loads and small-span structural applications. Featuring a 2.3E Modulus of Elasticity, this LVL offers exceptional stiffness and compression strength compared to traditional solid-sawn 4x4 timber. The square 3-1/2" profile ensures seamless integration into standard 2x4 wall framing and post-to-beam connections.

Manufactured from ultrasonically graded wood veneers bonded with waterproof structural adhesives, this member is virtually immune to the twisting, checking, and natural defects found in solid lumber. Staged for fast loading at our Boise, Idaho lumberyard, this 2.3E LVL provides the predictable performance and dimensional stability required for modern residential and commercial framing.

Specifications
  • Width: 3-1/2"
  • Depth: 3-1/2" (4x4 Dimensional Match)
  • Grade: 2.3E (High-Density Structural Grade)
  • Material: Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL)
  • Adhesive: Exterior-rated, moisture-resistant structural resins
  • Certification: APA/ICC-ES recognized structural composite lumber
Common Uses
  • Structural posts and columns designed to support concentrated point loads in multi-story residential builds
  • High-capacity headers for narrow window and door openings where vertical space is extremely limited
  • Critical load-transfer blocking and squash blocks within high-load floor and roof systems
  • King studs and jack stud replacements in 2x4 wall assemblies requiring engineered-grade bearing capacity
Contractor & Builder Notes
  • 4x4 Dimensional Match: The 3-1/2" square profile aligns perfectly with standard 2x4 framing and 4x4 connectors without the need for shimming.
  • Axial Strength: Engineered for superior vertical load-bearing capacity, providing a more reliable alternative to solid-sawn posts which are prone to splitting.
  • Dimensional Stability: Resists the twisting and checking common in solid-sawn 4x4s, keeping your frame square and reducing drywall cracking callbacks.
  • Zero Camber: Manufactured perfectly straight, ensuring vertical precision for columns and level installation for small headers.
  • Predictable Grading: Every layer is graded for a consistent 2.3E rating. Staged at our Boise, Idaho lumberyard for rapid forklift loading.
