Glue laminated timber (GLULAM)

Standart production

 
UAB Jūrės medis manufactures glue laminated timber load-bearing straight or curved beams, single or double pitched beams, arches, frames, trusses. All products are manufactured according projects submitted by the client or prepared by constructors of Jūrės medis. Timber structures are made from Lithuanian, Scandinavian and Siberian timber species: spruce, pine and larch. The lamellas are bonded with resorcinol and damp-proof melamine adhesives. There are 3 visual quality classes of glue laminated timber structures: industrial, standard and extra.
 
Glue laminated timber beams are straight and curved elements of high technological level used for load-bearing structures. Glue laminated timber consists of at least three dried boards (lamellas) 16-40mm glued together. Straight beams are usually glued from 40 mm lamellas and the curved beams – from 16...40 mm lamellas.
 
We produce beams of various width, height and forms which meet all architectural needs of our clients. Thanks to good strength, stability characteristics and different dimensions, these beams are a great product for all building structures and can be used in construction of all buildings, especially to span large gaps.

Prepared according to recommendations of German Laminated-Wood Research Laboratory (Association)(Studiengemeinschaft Holzleimbau e.V.).

 

  • German Otto Graf (FMPA) Institute certificates.
  • FSC® certificate
  • Russian certificate of conformity GOST R
  • ISO9001 and ISO14001
  1. POSSIBILITY TO SPAN OPENINGS UP TO 100 M.
  2. RESISTANCE TO MOISTURE. Makes it possible to employ the structures in construction of water parks and swimming pools.
  3. RESISTANCE TO CHEMICALLY AGGRESSIVE ENVIRONMENT. The structures are suitable for construction of buildings for storage of chemically aggressive materials and fertilizers, hangars and structures of agricultural purpose.
  4. RESISTANCE TO FIRE. Bigger cross-sections of glued-laminated elements guarantee proper resistance to fire that meets fire-prevention requirements for buildings even without extra impregnation with antipyrines.
  5. STRENGTH AND LIGHTNESS. The load-bearing strength which corresponds to one unit of structure mass is greater than that of reinforced concrete or metal structures.
  6. ECONOMY. Employment of glued-laminated timber structures allows saving construction materials when preparing the basement of a building, shortening the construction period and reducing costs.
  7. GOOD INSULATION QUALITIES. Glued-laminated structures are of slight heat conductance, thus they provide a possibility to make design decisions simpler, using the structures for outer walls, roof solutions and protruding them outside of a building.
  8. FORM DIVERSITY. Different shapes of structures which meet architectural and static requirements are available.  
  9. AESTHETICS. Glued-laminated timber structures of various shapes enliven facades and interiors of buildings. Colour and physical properties of timber provide a building light and cosiness.
  10. ECOLOGY. Timber structures are ecological and hygienic they do not emit harmful substances and are manufactured from renewing nature resources.
