Versa-Stud LVL

For Straighter, Taller Walls

For stronger, solid, straighter walls, go big with the consistent strength and performance of engineered wall studs.

Product Overview

Versa-Stud® laminated veneer lumber (LVL) framing is engineered to deliver strong, stiff, straight walls, resulting in a solid feel, smooth surface, and high-quality finish.

With its high performance and quality, Versa-Stud LVL is ideally suited for tall walls, stairwells, large window walls, and walls with cabinets or tile.

  • Strength & Performance

    Versa-Stud LVL offers at least 2.1 times more bending strength and 20% more stiffness than No. 2 Spruce-Pine-Fir (SPF) dimension lumber. Builders can count on stronger walls to resist wind loads, stiffer walls for a stronger feel, and straighter walls for a high-quality finish. Eased edges help prevent splinters.

  • Ideal for Tall Walls

    Versa-Stud LVL is a solution that provides superior wind resistance, strength, and appearance in tall wall applications. The studs come in long lengths for various applications and wall heights.

  • Straightforward Installation

    Versa-Stud LVL wall framing is consistent from stud to stud, eliminating the hassle of finding the perfect piece. It’s easy to install, with no special tools or training required — a must-have feature in today’s tight labor market.
