PWT Treated LVL
*** THIS ROW IS THE INVERSE OF THE RUN 732 MASS PLY LAM CASE AND THE PAIR IS WORTH KEEPING SIDE BY SIDE. THERE, THE MANUFACTURER NAMED THE STANDARD THE CODE SECTION REQUIRES AND DID NOT USE THE SUBJECT TERM. HERE, PWT ESTABLISHES THE SUBJECT TERM PLAINLY - its own LVL page calls the product "a structural composite product" made of bonded parallel-grain veneers, which is what IBC 2303.1.10 means by structural composite lumber - AND NAMES NO STANDARD: ASTM D5456 APPEARS NOWHERE ON THE RETRIEVED PAGES OR IN THE RETRIEVED TECH GUIDE. Call it a REQUIREMENT GAP, against the run 732 subject-term gap. The link below is made on the subject and is explicitly marked as not resting on the standard. *** WHAT PWT DOES PUBLISH IS BETTER THAN MOST: THREE EVALUATION REPORT NUMBERS (ICC-ES ESR-2909, ESR-3834, APA PR-L329) AND A FLORIDA PRODUCT APPROVAL (FL 39762). NONE OF THOSE DOCUMENTS WAS RETRIEVED - they live on icc-es.org, apawood.org and floridabuilding.org, all OFF the manufacturer host - SO NOTHING INSIDE THEM IS ASSERTED HERE. They are recorded as numbers PWT publishes, which is exactly what the run 732 Freres row could not do (there an APA report number surfaced in an off-host search result and was deliberately NOT filed because the manufacturer had not published it). HERE THE MANUFACTURER PUBLISHES THE NUMBERS ITSELF, ON ITS OWN DOCUMENT, WHICH IS WHY THEY ARE FILED. THE DISTINCTION IS THE WHOLE PROVENANCE RULE IN ONE PAIR OF ROWS. *** THE SISTER PRODUCT WAS EXAMINED AND NOT LISTED: the untreated PWT LVL page (https://pwtewp.com/products/lvl) NAMES NO STANDARD, NO REPORT NUMBER, NO GRADE AND NO DESIGN VALUE - it refers grades and dimensions to a downloadable quick guide that was not retrieved. No row was created for it and NONE OF THIS ROW EVIDENCE IS BORROWED ONTO IT: treated and untreated LVL are different products with different reports.
