Guys; For some reason I can not bring up the Georgia Pacific web site. I am looking for the nailing pattern to put two, 1 3/4 x 9 1/2 inch LVLs, 16 feet long, together. I prefer to use nails as I will be sheetrocking over the lvl.
Thank You

Stump,
Can not help with G.P. but can with McMillan LVL
for 1 3/4" X 9 1/2" Macmillan spec sheet calls for two rows 16d 3 1/2" nails at 12" on-center 2 5/8" from the top and bottom of the LVL nailed from both sides. Swing easy.
*G-P has the same 2 rows of 16d @ 12" o.c. with the top and bottom rows 2" from edges.
*Thanks guys!
*b TVMDCStump, Will the LVL be for Interior or Exterior use?
*TVMDC; For the interior. I took out a wall to open a new living room/kitchen area.
