Curved glulam beam sizes.

Normally however it is an advantage to choose the cross section of the glulam beam so that it can be formed using standard thickness lamellas. Aitc capacity tables provide the uniformly distributed load that a glued laminated timber beam can support based on beam size span and material properties. We can manufacture most custom curved shapes including s curves side curves parabolic arches double compound curves and tight radius curves with a radius as tight as 2 0. Available in a variety of widths and depths for multiple applications.

Stock beams are manufactured in commonly used dimensions and cut to length when the beams are ordered from a distributor or dealer. Table specifications are provided with each table indicating conditions and assumptions used to calculate the loads. Inside radius of 20 0 or more allows use of 2 nominal laminations. 3 1 8 3 1 2 5 1 8 5 1 2 and 6 3 4 inches.

Curved and arched glulams. A traditional 3 hinge arch design commonly used in glulam structures. Stock beams manufactured in common dimensions are cut to length when the beam is ordered from a distributor or dealer. Aitc beam capacity tables.

Typical stock beam widths include. Sizes glulam is available in both custom and stock sizes. Our glulams have an architectural appearance meaning that the exposed faces have been sanded and the all exposed corners have an eased edge. Glulam beams are 2x4 or 2x6 douglas fir dimensional lumber layered and laminated together with durable moisture resistant structural adhesives.

Glulam is adjustable glulam beams can be manufactured to the exact dimensions required. Glulam beams are commonly available in stock sizes that are manufactured for a variety of residential applications. 3 1 8 3 1 2 5 1 8 and 5 1 2 inches. Use beam stress combinations e g.

A 12m radius can be achieved using standard 45mm thick laminations but a tighter 3m radius may require a thickness of 18mm. Boise glulam is a strong cost effective wood beam solution which can be used as beams or columns in a multitude of building design applications. Glulam is available in both custom and stock sizes. These tables are provided as a guideline.

The tightness of the radius will determine the thickness of the laminations. Can manufacture a variety of different types of curved glulams including the standard constant radius curve tudor arches and peak and cambered glulams. By laminating a number of smaller pieces of timber a single large strong structural member is manufactured from smaller pieces. Glulam beams with constant cross section and radius for barrel or dome roof profiles.

Typical stock beam widths used in residential construction include. Other sizes available upon request. Typical stock beam widths used in residential construction include. Widths range from 3 to 14 and depths from 6 to 48.
