Timber frame structures – platform frame construction (part 1)
The platform frame method of building timber frame structures is suited to both low-rise and medium-rise buildings. Many buildings up to six and ... • Wall studs which are vertical timber members carrying axial loads and lateral loads from wind pressures • Top and bottom wall panel rails (usually of the same section size

Glued laminated timber structures
www.structuraltimber.co.ukBS EN 1995-1-111-12 requires that timber used to manufacture glulam is strength graded either visually or mechanically to either BS EN 1408113, BS 497814 (softwoods) or BS 575615 (hardwoods). The strength class to which a glulam member is assigned, depends not only on the grade of the laminations but on the build-up of the glulam section.
Timber as a structural material - an introduction
www.structuraltimber.co.ukTimber is categorised as either ‘softwood’ or ‘hardwood’. Softwood is obtained from coniferous trees and hardwood comes from broad-leaved trees. Softwood and hardwood are botanical terms and do not necessarily refer to the density or hardness of the wood. For example Balsa, which is known to
