For what brand?
Go to the manyfacturer's website, and you should find info there.
Like for GP brand beams, their stuff is at: http://www.gp.com/build/product.aspx?pid=1390
Thanks BH, I looked there already but all I can find are tables for I joists... I'll have to give them a ring.

Just spoke to someone from Weyerhauser and the news wasn't good. Looks like I'm gonna be calling in someone to size a steel beam...
Their LVL design info is in a PDF file here:http://www.gp.com/build/DocumentViewer.aspx?repository=BP&elementid=4372LVL info starts on page 35.

That's great BH, thanks! I'll save it for future reference...

Go to Trus Joist MacMillan's website, download the specifier's guide for their Microlam LVLs. Should be everything you need. I use it all the time.
Thanks Gene...
