Engineered Wood Construction Guide
APA engineered wood products are used in a wide range
of construction applications. Time-tested panel products
are used in traditional wood-frame construction and in
combination with other engineered wood products and
systems. For low in-place cost, versatility, and superior
performance, engineered wood systems are simply hard
to beat.
This guide from APA is designed as a reference manual
for both residential and commercial construction. It
contains up-to-date information on APA Performance
Rated panels, glulam, I-joists, structural composite
lumber, specification practices, floor, wall and roof
systems, diaphragms and shear walls, fire-rated systems
and methods of finishing.
If what you want to know about engineered wood
construction systems isn’t fully explained here, chances
are it is in one of our many other publications. Titles cited
throughout this publication can be downloaded or ordered
from the APA website, at www.apawood.org. Or, for
individual assistance with specific application questions or
