What are engineered wood products? EWP are a group of products which started with plywood back in the 1950\u2019s and saw the evolution of OSB (oriented strand board) a couple decades later. These days the list of products continues to expand and includes, but not limited to:<\/p>\n
I-joist for floor and roof systemsLVL \u2013 laminated veneer lumberLSL \u2013 laminated strand lumberPSL \u2013 parallel strand lumberGlulam \u2013 glue laminated timberCLT \u2013 cross laminated timber<\/p>\n
The reason why EWP makes sense is that it addresses some design requirements for today\u2019s structures :<\/p>\n
Consistent, predictable and published design valuesProducts are shipped from the factory dry and dimensionally stable<\/p>\n
More often than not a given wood structure will include roof trusses, wall panels and EWP for floor systems. Other combinations utilizing glulam and CLT allows designers a wide palette to draw from.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
