With early design input, Wesbeam LVL and LVL I-joist systems can help project teams reduce reliance on steel, simplify structural layouts and deliver more efficient build outcomes.
Lighter to Handle on Site
EWP is often easier to lift, move and install than steel members. This can help reduce manual handling complexity and support safer, faster construction processes.
Simpler Installation Pathways
Timber systems can often be installed using familiar carpentry methods and standard building processes. This can reduce coordination challenges compared with steel-intensive solutions.
Opportunities to Reduce Unnecessary Steel
With early Structural Engineering + Design Division involvement, Wesbeam can help identify where LVL and e-joist may reduce or replace unnecessary steel in floor, roof and wall systems.
Practical Connection Detailing
Wesbeam LVL products support strong and efficient timber connections, making them well suited to structural systems where buildability and detailing are critical.
