NP Design is developed by leaders in engineering design software. NP Design assists with certified specification of engineered wood products in common applications. NelsonPine® Design (NP Design) is a powerful design program for a range of user types, from builders to structural engineers and offers a range of different building levels to accommodate various user competencies. Sustainably Managed Timber NP Design – The Design Software for NZ and Australian Standardsįast, accurate beam specification for any project, domestic or commercial.

In our new ‘post-quake’ consciousness, it is the building material of choice”– Professor Andy Buchanan, University of Canterbury. “Technically, LVL is one of the most sophisticated wood products ever developed for the construction sector. NelsonPine® LVL products inspire Architects, Designers, Builders and end users to realise structural applications. Our range of LVL products are designed to span further and weigh less to optimise efficiency in design and construction. Our NelsonPine® LVL is engineered from renewable and sustainably sourced New Zealand radiata pine. LVL is manufactured to achieve consistent strength, stiffness and stability.

Built up with a specific sequence of structurally graded veneer sheets, the finished product displays less variability, a higher strength to stiffness ratio and more predictable performance than sawn timber. NelsonPine® LVL provides a consistent, high-performance alternative to solid lumber and steel in structural uses. Our products are used across residential, commercial, industrial, formwork and scaffolding applications. NelsonPine® LVL is available in a variety of sizes and lengths. NelsonPine® LVL is a structural engineered wood product manufactured from rotary peeled veneers, assembled with parallel grain orientation and bonded with an exterior structural adhesive.
