    Are you not concerned at all with creep, using the titebond instead of poly construction adhesive? I’m in the process of making a secondary support beam myself and have been told not to use Titebond III because of creep. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Why are your clamps on the same side of the board?

    How long is that beam?

      It's 20 feet - this is more of a ceiling joist than a beam as it does not have any vertical load - here's a video of a structural beam that's supported a ridge beam:

      LVL's are pretty handy for long spans as you can set the individual ply's and screw them together in place: ua-cam.com/video/jogbFDUnUYg/v-deo.html
