Laminated Timber

Laminated timber, often called glulam, is a type of engineered wood made by bonding multiple layers of thick lumber together using durable adhesives. This process creates strong, stable, and versatile beams or panels that can be customized to various sizes and shapes. Laminated timber is used in construction for structural elements like beams, arches, and columns, offering advantages such as high strength-to-weight ratio, design flexibility, and durability. It’s an environmentally friendly alternative to steel or concrete and can contribute to sustainable building practices, combining natural aesthetics with modern engineering.
