Timber frame structures - Structural Timber
STRUCTURAL TIMBER 3 ENGINEERING BULLETIN REV 0 - 23.10.14/EB003 3 and roof components in platform frametype construction. The benefit of the system is that the structural support and the insulation are incorporated into a single system during manufacture. This results in material efficiency but care is need for concentrated loading on the panels.

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

Introduction to Mass Timber Construction
www.usg.edutimber (GLT), nail-laminated timber (NLT), or structural composite lumber (SCL), is becoming more common in buildings complying with the current code. There is also an effort underway by the International Code Council (ICC) to recognize the use of mass timber elements in taller, combustible construction
CROSS-LAMINATED TIMBER - BRE
www.bre.co.ukoriginal timber, such as knots, can be removed in the factory to reduce variability and enhance structural performance. CLT differs from glulam in that it is formed into panels rather than beams, hence the layers of timber (lamellas) are bonded perpendicularly to one another, resulting in structural strength across two dimensions, and
