Step 1
Early Engagement
We work with customers early to understand the project type, structural requirements, build method and commercial priorities. Early input helps identify opportunities before key design decisions are locked in.
Step 2
Structural Review and Product Selection
Our team reviews the application and helps identify where Wesbeam LVL and I-joist products can provide the most effective solution. This includes considering spans, loads, floor depths, roof systems, wall interfaces, services and installation requirements.
Step 3
Design Optimisation
We help optimise layouts to improve material efficiency, simplify load paths, reduce unnecessary steel and support practical buildability on site.
Step 4
Documentation and Quantity Support
Depending on the project type, Wesbeam can provide detailed layouts, bills of materials, quotes, take-offs and supporting documentation to help customers progress with confidence.
Step 5
Technical Support Through Delivery
Our support continues through the project with access to technical guidance, product knowledge and practical advice to help resolve questions and support smoother construction outcomes.
Frequently Asked Questions
It is Wesbeam’s dedicated engineering, design and project support capability, bringing together structural engineers, designers, estimators and technical specialists to help customers achieve better outcomes with Wesbeam LVL and I-joist systems.
The new identity expands and strengthens the way Wesbeam communicates its capability. It moves the positioning beyond a traditional Design Centre and better reflects the structural engineering, design optimisation and project support already being delivered.
The division is structured around Residential, Multi-Unit and Commercial Design + Support, allowing Wesbeam to tailor the value proposition to different project types.
The earlier the better. Early engagement allows Wesbeam to help identify opportunities around product selection, floor depths, beam locations, load paths, service integration, material efficiency and buildability.
No. Wesbeam supports customers and project teams with product expertise, design support and engineered timber guidance. Project-specific structural certification and final design responsibility remain with the relevant project professionals.
Wesbeam combines structural engineering and design support with Australian-made LVL and I-joist manufacturing, national supply and deep product expertise. This allows us to support customers from design thinking through to practical material supply.
