Field Performance of Glued Laminated Timber (Glulam) Manufactured from Thin Treated Lamina [PDF]
Forest Products Journal, 2022 Abstract Glued Laminated Timber, commonly referred to as Glulam, is an important structural wood product, suitable for use in exterior applications provided it is protected against decay by building design, natural durability, or treatment. Bonding treated lamina made from refractory species is challenging because resurfacing after treatment ...
