Glued laminated timber or glulam is the beating heart of timber engineering.
Glulam roof design.
Detailed design services include early design advice and consulting conceptual sketches 2d general arrangements 3d structural detailing and full 3d timber frame structural design.
If the proposed design of your roof is not achievable using a conventional truss design then sydenhams can incorporate glulam laminated beams to provide support intermediately or as a design statement the beams can be left exposed to provide maximum impact.
Glued laminated timber is a versatile engineered wood that is frequently specified for its strength beauty and reliability.
Glulam beams bearing the apa ews trademark.
Several layers of spruce wood are glued together in the direction of the grain and processed into customised glulam elements.
The tables include values for section properties and capacities and allowable loads for simple span and cantilevered beams.
Glued laminated beam design tables lued laminated beams glulams are used in a wide range of applications in both commercial and residential construction.
Glulam roof beams.
Unalam laminated wood is readily available and generally requires less lead time than other structural framing systems.
Aitc capacity tables provide the uniformly distributed load that a glued laminated timber beam can support based on beam size span and material properties.
Our glued laminated timber offers excellent statics qualities.
If requested by our customers we will include steel hardware and erection on a job.
It is light weight and retains its shape.
The tables in this data file provide recommended preliminary design loads for two of the most common glulam beam applications.
It explains the capabilities and characteristics and includes a specification guide providing tips on how to order glulam.
Table specifications are provided with each table indicating conditions and assumptions used to calculate the loads.
The material is made up of several layers of structural timber that have been bonded together using adhesives in order to form a bigger potentially enormous piece of wood.
These tables are provided as a guideline.
The glued laminated beam design tables form s475 provide recommended preliminary design loads for two of the most common glulam beam applications.
Our structural glulam units are available in columns trusses arches purlins and beams floor and roof.
The full version allows you to design beams of any size.
