All design properties for SPF #2 and SYP #2 were obtained from 2005 NDs for Wood Construction. (1) Specific Gravity of LSL = 0.5 into the face, 0.42 into the edge. Specific Gravity of Rim = 0.38 into face and is not recommended into the edge. (2) ASTM E 518-85, R-Value shown is for thickness of 1.5" LSL material. (3) StrandGuard LSL treating process applies Zinc Borate (ZB), an EPA-registered biocide thoughtout the entire cross section. Zinc Borate (ZB) is non-corrosive to metal fasteners and connectors.in addition no special handling or disposal is required. (4) StrandGuard LSL meets AWPA standards for use Category 2 (UC2). Protected from moisture, but may be subject to sources of moisture (e.g. contact with concrete). PreBuck,LLC ICF Bucking & Parapet Cap Framing System meet AWPA category 2 (UC2).
