These days， the trend is toward large open rooms in homes， with a reduced number of columns. Therefore， the remaining columns must bear greater loads and traditional wood is often inadequate. An attractive alternative to steel columns is to use Versa-Lam engineered wood columns. Boise Cascade VERSA-LAM LVL columns offer higher design values than solid wood columns. Versa-Lam is made at an ideal 10% moisture content. With Boise Cascade VERSA-LAM LVL， you'll find none of the deep checks， cracks or twists that can plague solid wood columns.
