AS/NZS 4357.0:2005 pdf download.Structural laminated veneer lumber Part 0: Specifications.
Structural LVL exposed to insect or fungal attack shall be preservative treated in accordance with AS/NZS 1604.4.
NOTES:
I In Queensland the Timber Utilization and Marketing Act, 1987, and in New South Wales the Timber Marketing Act. 1977, require
prior approval of a treatment and registration of a brand before tiniber (including LVL) offered for sale in either of these
states, can be described as preservative-treated. Detailed information about the requirements of such legislation may he obtained
from
the state forestry departments concerned.
2 Treatment processes involving harsh wetting and drying regimes may cause internal checking and consequent loss of structural
integrity.
3 Some chemical treatments are known to adversely affect structural properties of Structural
LVL.
4 Under conditions of long-term full-weather exposure, the exposed surface of the structural laminated veneer lumber should be
adequately protected.
