Curved Glulam Beam Sizes

Typical stock beam widths used in residential construction include.

Curved glulam beam sizes.

Glulam beams are 2x4 or 2x6 douglas fir dimensional lumber layered and laminated together with durable moisture resistant structural adhesives. Use beam stress combinations e g. Glulam beams with constant cross section and radius for barrel or dome roof profiles. Aitc capacity tables provide the uniformly distributed load that a glued laminated timber beam can support based on beam size span and material properties.

Glulam beams are commonly available in stock sizes that are manufactured for a variety of residential applications. Stock beams are manufactured in commonly used dimensions and cut to length when the beam is ordered from a distributor or dealer. Use beam stress combinations e g. Sizes glulam is available in both custom and stock sizes.

Aitc beam capacity tables. A traditional 3 hinge arch design commonly used in glulam structures. Stock beams are manufactured in commonly used dimensions and cut to length when the beams are ordered from a distributor or dealer. Widths range from 3 to 14 and depths from 6 to 48.

Table specifications are provided with each table indicating conditions and assumptions used to calculate the loads. A 12m radius can be achieved using standard 45mm thick laminations but a tighter 3m radius may require a thickness of 18mm. The tightness of the radius will determine the thickness of the laminations. Stock beams manufactured in common dimensions are cut to length when the beam is ordered from a distributor or dealer.

Curved and arched glulams. These tables are provided as a guideline. Glulam is available in both custom and stock sizes. By laminating a number of smaller pieces of timber a single large strong structural member is manufactured from smaller pieces.

Glulam is adjustable glulam beams can be manufactured to the exact dimensions required. Available in a variety of widths and depths for multiple applications. Typical stock beam widths include. Inside radius of 20 0 or more allows use of 2 nominal laminations.
