  1. Click ‘Get Form’ to open the LVL span chart in our editor.
  2. Begin by calculating the factored and unfactored total load (TL) and unfactored live load (LL) on the beam in pounds per linear foot (plf).
  3. Select the appropriate span from the chart, ensuring it corresponds to your calculated loads.
  4. Scan horizontally across the selected span to find a width and depth that meet or exceed your actual loads.
  5. Review the minimum end/int. bearing requirements listed in inches to ensure they are adequate for your application.

A general rule of thumb is that the depth of the LVL beam should be equal to the span in inches divided by 20, while the width should be one-quarter of the depth.
So, the longest unsupported span possible using LVL would be 80-feet. Typically, though, it is common for a continuous LVL span to be between 20 and 30. Hopefully, you have a better understanding of what LVL beams are and how they may be used on your next project.

The joist table below shows that a 90x45 joist can run a maximum of 1.5m if your spacing between each joist is 45cm, which is typically what you would use.
For a 20-foot span replacing a load-bearing wall in a single-story home, select an LVL beam sized based on load type and spacing. Typically, a double or triple 1.75x11. 875 LVL beam is used.
