An overview of the use of glued laminated timber (glulam) in the UK

Construction and Building Materials, 1987
Abstract An overview is given on the use of glued laminated timber in the UK. The advantages which it possesses over solid timber and the way in which these are accounted for in design are explained. The use of glulam in the UK is now increasing after many years of decline and the recent formation of a British Glued Laminated Timber Association is ...

Charring Rate of Glued Laminated Timber (Glulam) Made from Selected Malaysian Tropical Timber

2015
Besides strengths requirement for safety, fire resistance is also an important factor for safety of timber structure. During the exposure to fire, a charred layer forms on the external part of the timber element that protects the underlying layers against the action of fire. Charring rate value is required in the design of timber structures.

Performance of Glued Laminated Timber (Glulam) Made from Kelempayan Wood with Different Lamina Assembly Patterns and Adhesive Spread Rates

Bulletin of the Transilvania University of Brasov. Series II: Forestry • Wood Industry • Agricultural Food Engineering, 2023
This study investigates the impact of adhesive spread rates and lamina assembly patterns on the physical and mechanical properties of glue laminated lumber (glulam) manufactured from Kelempayan wood (Neolamarckia cadamba (Roxb.) Bosser). For this purpose, lab-scale 3-ply homogenous glulams were manufactured using low-MOE, average-MOE, and high-MOE ...

Study of the mechanical properties of glued laminated timber (glulam) with treated Hevea brasiliensis and epoxy adhesive

Caderno Pedagógico
The search for sustainable alternative sources of materials for use as structural elements in civil construction has been gaining prominence in recent years. Glued laminated timber (glulam) is an environmentally friendly option aimed at replacing traditional steel and reinforced concrete structures.
