Glulam (Glued Laminated Timber)

Glued laminated timber, or glulam, is a type of engineered wood made from layers of smaller pieces of timber that are bonded together with strong adhesives. This process enhances the strength, stability, and durability of the wood, allowing it to be used for large structural applications like beams and columns in buildings and bridges. Glulam can be shaped into various forms, offering design flexibility and aesthetic appeal. It's a sustainable building material, effectively utilizing trees while minimizing waste, and can often be produced using renewable resources. This makes glulam a popular choice in modern construction.
