Published by L. Guss Assoc., June 2006; 102 Pages; 46 Exhibits

This report is a non-technical study, easily digestible which covers the entire North American structural engineered wood products category. The market-oriented report considers all structural load-bearing EWP: LVL, glulam beams, wood I-joists, proprietary products, OSB and softwood plywood. The study is designed to provide strategic information critical to anyone involved in this market.

Most people in the forest products industry know about the inevitable replacement of key solid wood elements with engineered wood products (EWP) but what many people don’t know is the great speed at which EWP is taking over. The report concludes that shortages of suitable timber will open up increased opportunity for EWP.

Anyone who is involved in the EWP industry will benefit from this study. The report contains the background, history and development of EWP, major players & trends, forecasts, timber supply, trends in housing and construction. The study also identifies market drivers and restraints and essential information for manufacturers, service providers, investors and distributors competing in the marketplace. Forecasts for all EWP markets are made to 2016.
