LVL Beams Headers and Columns Deliver Superior Strength With Structural Precision
RedBuilt's laminated veneer lumber beams, headers, and columns offer engineered strength, dimensional stability, and ease of installation for a wide range of construction needs. Backed by strict manufacturing standards and sustainable materials, these LVL products meet modern architectural and structural demands with unmatched performance. Boise, Idaho - RedBuilt is reinforcing its role as an innovator in engineered wood construction with its line of laminated veneer lumber (LVL) beams, headers, and columns designed for demanding structural applications. With an emphasis on precision engineering and consistent quality, these LVL products deliver superior strength and performance across a wide spectrum of architectural and building needs. Made from thin wood veneers bonded together with durable adhesives under intense heat and pressure, laminated veneer lumber combines the resilience of engineered wood with the aesthetic flexibility required in modern construction. The result is a product line that offers structural stability, dimensional consistency, and reliable load-bearing capacity. LVL beams and headers from RedBuilt LLC are optimized to handle substantial loads while offering efficient use of materials, making them an ideal solution for both residential and commercial building applications. Hayley Dunning, Marketing Communications Specialist at RedBuilt, notes the significance of LVL in modern building practices. 'Laminated veneer lumber provides a high-performance alternative to traditional solid-sawn lumber. The consistency in size, strength, and moisture content translates to easier installation and long-term durability. It's a smarter choice for anyone looking to maximize structural reliability and material efficiency,' said Dunning. RedBuilt's LVL products are specifically fabricated to meet the rigorous demands of today's architectural designs. From long-span beams to precision-cut headers and vertical columns, each product is engineered to deliver exceptional structural integrity. These components are manufactured under strict quality control conditions, ensuring that each unit performs predictably when subjected to varying environmental and structural loads. Builders and engineers are increasingly turning to laminated veneer lumber for its superior properties and ease of use. Unlike traditional lumber, LVL does not warp, twist, or shrink over time. This dimensional stability is crucial in applications such as floor joists, roof rafters, and complex framing scenarios where consistency is key. The uniform nature of LVL makes it particularly well-suited for load-bearing elements that demand reliability and minimal deflection over extended spans. The versatility of RedBuilt's LVL beams and columns allows them to be deployed in a wide array of structural settings. Designers and fabricators can specify the exact sizes and spans required, resulting in optimized material usage and simplified installation on the job site. Another critical advantage of LVL is its adaptability in design and fabrication. Because the veneer layers are engineered for uniformity, the beams can be manufactured into a variety of lengths and widths and maintaining structural performance. This allows for seamless integration into the plans. The result is a construction product that meets stringent performance criteria while offering flexibility in installation and design aesthetics. RedBuilt's commitment to providing value-driven solutions is evident in how its laminated veneer lumber enhances job site efficiency. The strength-to-weight ratio of LVL makes handling easier, reducing labor costs and minimizing installation errors. Combined with the product's compatibility with common construction fasteners and connectors, builders are able to speed up framing timelines without sacrificing quality or safety. These LVL components also contribute to sustainable building practices. The manufacturing process uses wood veneers from fast-growing trees, maximizing the utility of available timber resources. This efficient use of wood fiber supports both environmental goals and material cost reduction. Furthermore, the durability adds to the long-term value of the product. Laminated veneer lumber is becoming increasingly important in the construction of schools, office buildings, and public facilities where code requirements demand high-performance structural elements. The beams, headers, and columns are capable of spanning large areas while supporting complex roof and floor systems. Their ability to integrate seamlessly with other engineered wood products such as I-joists and open-web trusses positions them as an essential component of holistic engineered wood-based structural systems. 'LVL is no longer just an alternative, it's becoming a standard in engineered wood solutions,' Dunning added. 'Our customers rely on the performance and reliability of these products to achieve both structural goals and architectural vision. With laminated veneer lumber, they can design with confidence and build with efficiency.' As the construction industry continues to evolve, the demand for high-performance, precision-engineered building materials will only increase. RedBuilt's laminated veneer lumber beams, headers, and columns stand at the forefront of this movement, offering unmatched strength, flexibility, and value for architects, engineers, and builders across the industry.

Couche-Tard CEO sees speedier timeline in potential deal for 7-Eleven owner
Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc. executives say the recent process they've adopted to try to buy the owner of 7-Eleven has helped negotiations and perhaps even sped things up. The Laval, Que.-based convenience store operator, which owns Circle K, signed a non-disclosure agreement with Seven & i Holdings Co. Ltd. in May. It also put together a portfolio of U.S. stores it would consider selling in hopes of appeasing regulators and advancing its goal of acquiring 7-Eleven's Japanese parent company. 'I think the benefit of that is it's setting a timeline to bring clarity to both us … and their special committee, if a transaction is going to be reached,' said CEO Alex Miller. 'I believe that timeline will be shorter rather than longer.' The comments offer a window into the talks between the two convenience store giants, whose relations have swung from acrimonious to more tempered since Couche-Tard made a bid for Seven & i last August. Seven & i's board initially rebuffed Couche-Tard's offer, causing it to sweeten its bid by 22 per cent to a reported US$47 billion. Still, Seven & i fought the attempt and eventually garnered a buyout proposal from the family that helped found the Japanese firm. When that fell through, Couche-Tard and Seven & i started mapping out potential buyers for convenience stores that could be sold to satisfy U.S. antitrust regulators. They've said little about how things have progressed since, but Miller mentioned Thursday that only a small group at Couche-Tard is involved with the potential acquisition and engaged with management discussions and due diligence. 'Our focus on mergers and acquisitions, it hasn't changed,' he said. 'I would say activity has not been as pronounced in the recent weeks as it had been over the previous months, but we remain active on some things and we will continue to look at those things as we have always done.' His comments came a day after Couche-Tard revealed it earned US$442.3 million during the fourth quarter, down from US$454.5 million during the same quarter last year. The company, which keeps its books in U.S. dollars, reported net earnings attributable to shareholders came in at US$439.4 million during the quarter, compared to US$453 million during the same period last year. Earnings per diluted share for the period ended April 27 reached 46 cents US during the fourth quarter, compared with 47 cents US during the same period last year. Revenue came in at US$16.3 billion during the fourth quarter, down 7.5 per cent on an annual basis. The quarter encompassed a period of time that was 'not overly rosy' but 'fairly stable.' 'This year has been among the more challenging in retail as our consumers are hurting and carefully watching their spending,' Miller said, in what was likely a reference to the tariff dispute and high cost of living. Yet Canada saw strong demand for fuel and Couche-Tard feels there are more opportunities to expand its market share. Plus, it has also seen 'significant tailwinds' from legislation that allows it to sell alcohol at its Ontario convenience stores. Monday Mornings The latest local business news and a lookahead to the coming week. Miller has seen the addition of booze at locations in the province prove popular and offset losses from nicotine-based products. Moving forward, it will continue its emphasis on expanding food sales. The number of food products the company has sold in the U.S. alone has risen for 14 weeks straight, Miller said, adding that part of the business is in its 'early innings.' It will also focus on personalizing its customer experience. Efforts in that area so far have boosted the number of trips people make to Couche-Tard's stores and how much they spend. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 25, 2025. Companies in this story: (TSX:ATD)
