CONT

Laminated strand lumber (LSL) is a composite structural material consisting of oriented wood flakes that are glued and compressed to form panels up to 90 mm (3-1/2 inches) thick. This material is an attractive alternative to solid sawn lumber because it has stronger properties than solid lumber of the same species as well as less variability.

OBS

Laminated strand lumber (LSL) is similar to PSL [parallel strand lumber] except it is made with thinner and wider strands and it uses different resin binder.
