EASTERN BCI® AND
VERSA-LAM® SPECIFIER GUIDE
SPAN AND SIZE CHARTS FOR LVL & ENGINEERED WOOD PRODUCTS
Versa-Lam® laminated veneer lumber (LVL) beams and headers eliminate twisting, shrinking and splitting, and deliver flatter, quieter floors and structures. High-performance floors start with BCI® Joists—with 20% greater strength than comparably-sized dimensional lumber.
Together both products provide consistent results keeping homes square, floors quiet, and — most importantly — the builder’s reputation intact.

BC Calc
BC Calc® performs engineering analysis to help our customers size beams, joists, columns, studs and tall walls for their building projects. It is simple to use, yet flexible enough to analyze a variety of common applications. The user enters the member geometry, adds loads, holes and other relevant data and then selects a product for analysis. The program helps the user identify which of Boise Cascade’s engineered wood products meet the demands of the application.
