Madera microlaminada o LVL
Descripción, usos y características. Beneficios e Inconvenientes
La madera microlaminada o LVL (Laminated Veneer Lumber) tiene una gran similitud en el proceso de fabricación a la madera contrachapada. Es un material compuestos por chapas de madera encoladas en la dirección de la fibra, a diferencia de la madera contrachapada que está compuesta por una alternancia de chapas paralelas a la fibra y perpendiculares a la fibra. Esta tecnología es ideal para estructuras gracias a la elevada resistencia a flexión, uniformidad de las propiedades, poco peso y la posibilidad de curvar piezas en función del espesor de la chapa.
Este producto tuvo su auge en los años 70 usado como viguetas prefabricadas y responde a la tendencia tecnológica de homogeneizar las propiedades y conseguir mayores dimensiones en los productos de la madera.

Unusual finding: a pine forest in excellent condition emerges after 6,000 years buried under the ice
In the world there are millions of forests. Some are close to urban centers, others in remote and inaccessible places, but they all fulfill a key role: maintain the balance of the planet. They are literally the lung of the earth. When talking about a new forest, the first thing that comes to mind is usually reforestation, a recent plantation or the recovery of an area razed by fire. But this discovery is on another way. It is not a forest sown recently. It is an old forest, which was there for thousands of years, buried under the ice. And now, with the thaw caused by global warming, he has emerged again.
