A special look: Glulam made out of HESS HYBRID (Spruce/Oak) The benefits of Glulam Timber 4 Cepl logistics centre Chemical resistance Glued laminated timber, often shortened as Glulam, is an engineered wood product manufactured by gluing together pieces of timber, known as laminates. This process produces larger size and longer length members, which can be curved or straight. Timber and the synthetic adhesives used in bonding glulam have a remarkable resistance to chemical attack. Therefore glulam is often chosen as the preferred structural material for buildings such as salt barns, water...

Great fire resistance When subjected to fire, large timber sections have greater resistance to loss of structural integrity than steel or pre-stressed concrete. This resistance is provided by a layer of charcoal which forms around the surface of the section during exposure to fire. The rate of charring of different species of timber is known and therefore the performance and endurance of timber in fire is predictable. The strength of the residual, unburnt core of timber can readily be calculated, thereby allowing a realistic assessment of safe resistance to fire to be made. The method of...
