The paper presents the results of testing the angular joints of planks and the beam of laminated glued unidirectional veneer LVL. Planks made of larch are mainly used for enclosing structures and exterior facings. Because of this, it is necessary to provide high-quality and reliable joints between the boards. A modern example of engineering wood application is the beam of unidirectional veneer LVL. Taking into account the features of the LVL structure, its difference from solid wood, as well as the lack of information on the behavior of this material under different operation conditions, it is necessary to study the features of its operation in this type of joints.
