Because the use of dry wood can prevent deformation, cracking, etc. during use; large dimensional freedom, beams that can meet the required span and cross-sectional shape; give full play to the characteristics of wood, can absorb vibration, and can decorate at will; easy to carry out anti-corrosion, anti-corrosion and insect-proof treatment , and the effect is good.
Due to its high load capacity and low weight, glulam allows you to cover large areas of components. It can cover structural sections up to 100 meters long without intermediate supports. Successfully resists various chemicals. It also resists deformation caused by moisture, such as straight line deformation.
Structures made of glue-laminated wood are safer than unprotected steel structures. This is because the carbonized layer is formed around the core of the glulam, which reduces oxygen consumption and delays combustion, thereby maintaining structural strength for a longer time.
Glue-laminated lumber is produced under optimum humidity conditions, which minimise shrinkage and expansion and guarantee the dimensional stability of the material. Pinus sylvestris glulam is easy to process, and its processing performance is better than that of ordinary wood, and the finished glulam after processing is more stable and durable.
Pinus sylvestris has a high hardness of the wood structure, and its abrasion resistance is also very strong. When covering large openings without intermediate supports, these structures may require fewer connections, saving material. This feature facilitates maintenance and assembly. Studies have shown that wood beams have the same strength as concrete beams of the same volume, but wood is about five times lighter
