The GluLam product range may seem confusing but quite simple to understand. Below is a list of codes used to determine the type of GluLam timber:
Glue-laminated (glulam) timber is a versatile and increasingly popular building material in modern construction. Created by bonding layers of high-quality timber with durable adhesives, glulam offers exceptional strength, sustainability and aesthetic appeal. It is a sustainable alternative to traditional solid timber and is widely used in structural and architectural applications.
Glulam timber is an engineered wood product composed of multiple layers of kiln-dried lumber bonded together with strong adhesives. The process aligns the grain of the wood in the same direction, making the material stronger and more durable than solid timber of the same size. Glulam is available in various sizes, shapes and lengths, including glulam beams and glulam columns, making it perfect for custom design applications in construction.
Glulam is renowned for its impressive strength, making it ideal for use in structural applications such as beams, columns, arches and trusses. Glulam beams, for example, are designed to support heavy loads while maintaining their integrity over time. Glulam columns offer exceptional durability for vertical supports, ensuring reliable performance in both residential and commercial buildings. As a renewable material, glulam timber is an environmentally friendly choice for your construction projects. The production process generates minimal waste, and it can be sourced from sustainably managed forests, helping to reduce your project’s carbon footprint. Glulam timber’s versatility is one of its standout features. It can be crafted into a range of shapes, sizes and lengths to suit the unique demands of any project. Whether you need curved glulam beams for a striking design or a strong glulam column for a commercial building, this material can be tailored to meet your specific requirements.
Glulam is used extensively in both residential and commercial applications. Its strength and visual appeal make it perfect for large span structures. A glulam structure can be tailored to support heavy loads while providing an elegant and natural appearance. It’s also ideal for interior applications, such as exposed beams and columns, offering a warm, modern look to any space.
Glulam timber offers a range of advantages, from its strength and durability to its sustainability and customisation options. Whether you are working with glulam beams, glulam columns, or a full glulam structure, this material can meet the needs of any construction project.
