(OP)
Hi all,
I need to learn a bit about the different engineered woods available. Things like strength tables, costs, available shapes, applications etc. I'm interested in OSB parralam and engineered wood beams in particular. Do you all have any links, resources, or experiences you could share?

RE: crash course in "engineered"woods

See Trus-Joist MacMillan for Parallam PSL, Microllam LVL, & Timber Strand LSL.  There are others, but these are the products that I see available in my area of the country.

RE: crash course in "engineered"woods

Go to APA - Engineered Wood Association website and look for the Engineered Wood Construction Guide.  Should have what you need in there.  They also have numerous other publications available.
