How much does a 20ft LVL cost?
$6 to $11 per linear foot
The LVL beam thickness is usually between 1.75 and 7 inches. The price for beams that fit 10 feet of space will range from $3 to $5 per linear foot, while a 20-feet span will need a beam that costs $6 to $11 per linear foot. Consult a local structural engineer to determine the best LVL beam size for your span.
