Do not place it in the weather or where water can pond. The factory sealer sheds rain during storage and construction, when framed members may see weather for a limited time, usually not more than 3 months, and it does not totally waterproof the LVL. If the member will be exposed, order an H3 length instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJoists, bearers, lintels, rafters, hanging beams, counter beams, strutting beams and underpurlins are sized from the SmartLVL 15 tables or an engineer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign span runs to the centre of the required bearing, not across a thick wall.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestrain hanging, counter and strutting beams with blocking, a top tie or a galvanised strap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not skew-nail a rafter to an underpurlin parallel to the veneers, or birdsmouth that way.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInside AS 1684.2, one diagram allows one hole in any 1800 mm of span and the other allows three; otherwise ask an engineer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavier joints need a rated hanger rather than skew nails.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStorage\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore packs flat and off the ground, on bearers at most four metres apart, under a breathable cover.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWet LVL loses strength in the short term while wet, and some thickness swelling may not fully recover after drying.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDocuments\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0847\/6970\/2196\/files\/SmartLVL15-Design-Guide-2026-Ed.1.pdf?v=1792376220\" style=\"color:#0066cc;text-decoration:underline;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eSmartLVL 15 Design Guide 2026 Edition 1\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0847\/6970\/2196\/files\/SmartLVL-15-2021-E1.pdf?v=1792376220\" style=\"color:#0066cc;text-decoration:underline;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eSmartLVL 15 Design Guide Edition 1 2021\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Smart Frame","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49338732183860,"sku":"SL1540075H2S36","price":347.51,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0847\/6970\/2196\/files\/GetImage_527cb30b-bcd6-42c1-9649-4fb75bfe0025.jpg?v=1792404314","url":"https:\/\/aclassbuildingmaterials.com.au\/products\/smartlvl-15-h2s-400-x-75-3-6m-sl1540075h2s36","provider":"A Class Building Materials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
