  2. Parallel-strand lumber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel-strand_lumber

    The beams are continuously formed, so the length of the beam is limited only to the maximum length that can be handled and transported. Typical widths are 3 + 1 ⁄ 2, 5 + 1 ⁄ 4 or 7 inches (89, 133 or 178 mm); typical depths are 9 + 1 ⁄ 2, 11 + 7 ⁄ 8, 14, 16 and 18 inches (240, 300, 360, 410 and 460 mm). Typically the beams are made to a ...

  3. Glued laminated timber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glued_laminated_timber

    Glulam brace with plates used for connections Glulam frame of a roof structure. Glued laminated timber, commonly referred to as glulam, is a type of structural engineered wood product constituted by layers of dimensional lumber bonded together with durable, moisture-resistant structural adhesives so that all of the grain runs parallel to the longitudinal axis.

  4. Laminated veneer lumber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminated_veneer_lumber

    LVL is a type of structural composite lumber, comparable to glued laminated timber (glulam) but with a higher allowable stress. [1] A high performance more sustainable alternative to lumber, Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) beams, headers and columns are used in structural applications to carry heavy loads with minimum weight. [2]

  5. Engineered wood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineered_wood

    Glued laminated timber (glulam) is composed of several layers of dimensional timber glued together with moisture-resistant adhesives, creating a large, strong, structural member that can be used as vertical columns or horizontal beams. Glulam can also be produced in curved shapes, offering extensive design flexibility. [24]

    Care is taken during construction to avoid nailing directly into a glued joint as stud breakage can occur. Glulam beams – created from 2×4 or 2×6 stock by gluing the faces together to create beams such as 4×12 or 6×16. As such, a beam acts as one larger piece of lumber – thus eliminating the need to harvest larger, older trees for the ...

  7. Cross-laminated timber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-laminated_timber

    Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is a subcategory of engineered wood [1] panel product made from gluing together at least three layers [2] of solid-sawn lumber (i.e. lumber cut from a single log). [3] The grain of each layer of boards is usually rotated 90 degrees from that of adjacent layers and glued on the wide faces of each board, usually in a ...

  8. Eurocode 5: Design of timber structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocode_5:_Design_of...

    It applies for civil engineering works from solid timber, sawn, planed or in pole form, glued laminated timber or wood-based structural products, (e.g. LVL) or wood-based panels jointed together with adhesives or mechanical fasteners and is divided into the following parts. EN Eurocode 5 is intended to be used in conjunction with:

  9. Plyscraper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plyscraper

    CLT has a high fire resistance due to the fire-resistant adhesive used and the surface char layer that forms when it is exposed to fire. The surface char layer protects the interior of the wood from further damage. Glulam is typically used for columns and beams as an alternative to commonly used steel and concrete.
