GLUE LAMINATED TIMBER GLT/BSH GL24h

Product Description

Glulam, or Glue Laminated Timber (GLT), is one of the most innovative and adaptable materials in modern construction. It is made from strength-graded, planed spruce boards with finger joints, glued under pressure on the flatwise surface, providing high strength, stability, and resistance to deformation. This makes Glulam an ideal choice for large-scale and complex structures, as it can withstand significant loads and has a wide range of applications. Glulam is commonly used in projects where both strength and aesthetics are important.

Key Advantages of Glulam:

  • Glulam is a naturally appealing product that instantly creates a connection to nature and is available in two surface quality options: Visual (Si) or Industrial (NSi)

  • Strength and Stability Thanks to the laminating technology, glulam is characterized by high strength, allowing for the creation of large spans without additional support. This makes it an ideal material for structures with high loads and complex architectural solutions, such as sports halls, bridges, or industrial buildings.

  • Environmental Friendliness and Carbon Footprint Reduction The use of glulam contributes to the reduction of the carbon footprint of buildings due to the wood's ability to absorb CO₂

  • Fire Resistance In contrast to traditional materials that quickly lose strength at high temperatures, glulam burns gradually, preserving structural integrity for an extended period. This provides additional protection for the building in the event of a fire and is an important safety factor.

Specification

Why Choose Glulam?

Glulam is effectively resistant to cracks and warping due to its multi-layered construction, which ensures stability in dimensions and shape even under fluctuating humidity and temperature conditions. This is particularly important for structures that are used in various climatic environments.

Glulam is an economically advantageous material for construction, as it combines strength, durability, and ease of installation, reducing costs for construction work and materials. Its ability to facilitate quick assembly also shortens the duration of the construction process.
