What is Glulam? Glue-laminated timber or glulam, is an engineered wood product consisting of several parallel layers of small pieces of lumber stacked and glued together under pressure to make a large timber structure (APA, 2019). Glulam is commonly used for structural components like columns, beams, and arches of mid to high-rise buildings. Glulam

Structural composite lumber (SCL) and glulam tim-bers are recognized as rectangular shaped products that have strength, stiffness, and consistency resulting from wood fiber orientation and strict manufacturing process control.

Glued-laminated timber (glulam) is a structural engineered wood product commonly used for beams and columns in residential and commercial applications. It is a highly visible form of mass timber in contemporary projects, with long spans framing signature designs left exposed to take advantage of wood’s natural aesthetic.

High-quality yellow cedar glue-laminated timber (glulam) for industrial, commercial, and residential projects. Yellow cedar is prized worldwide for its smooth, rich texture and straight grain.

2020年8月24日 · Glue-laminated timber is used as vertical columns, horizontal beams, and arches. Glue-laminated wood can be easily bent into curve shapes and is available in a variety of species and appearances. Glulam has been used extensively for decades for commercial and residential projects.

Glue-laminated timber is perfect for arched bottom chord trusses or curved timbers in other areas of the structure. With glulam there is very little checking and shrinking as compared with traditional solid timbers, creating a cleaner and less rustic look.

As one of the oldest and widely used mass timber products, glulam use is broad and includes virtually all building types. Beyond buildings, it serves as the primary material for major load-bearing structures such as bridges, canopies and pavilions. It can be used as columns, straight or curved beams and affixed side-by-side to form panels.
