 Glulam Camber

Glulam camber refers to the intentional curvature built into a glued laminated timber (glulam) beam or member during manufacturing. This curvature counteracts deflection caused by loads, ensuring the beam performs optimally and maintains its intended shape under structural stress.

Application

Long Spans:

  • Common in bridges, large roofs, and auditoriums where long, unsupported spans are required.
  • Helps maintain the structural integrity and visual alignment over significant distances.

Curved Roofs and Arches:

Used in curved roof systems or architectural arches, providing both structural support and aesthetic elegance.

Open Spaces:

Ideal for spaces like sports arenas, concert halls, or airport terminals where beams need to maintain a flat or upward profile.

Advantages of Using Glulam in Applications

  • Improved Performance: Reduces mid-span sag and maintains alignment under load.
  • Enhanced Appearance: Ensures beams remain visually straight or achieve the desired curve in exposed applications.
  • Customization: Camber can be tailored to meet specific project requirements.
