In fact, garage door headers are one of the most popular applications for stock < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > beams in residential framing. 27011 SOUTH 19TH STREET, TACOMA, WASHINGTON 98466 (253) 620 -7400 BENEFITS FOR GARAGE DOOR HEADERSB uilders and architects turn to < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > for these applications for a number of reasons, including: < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > is available in widths that match standard 2x4 and 2x6 wall construction, so there s no need for furring when you connect headers to end walls.

2 For 2x6 wall construction, a 5-1/2-inch-wide < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > beam provides the perfect fit. < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > is supplied with zero or minimal camber, ensuring a level garage door opening with no sag. < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > headers are routinely inventoried by local lumber dealers. < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > headers come as a single piece, eliminating any need to nail together header materials. < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > is dry, straight, and dimensionally < strong >stablestrong > . Because it won t warp or twist, it s easy to frame a straight garage door opening. Because < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > is manufactured under strict industry-wide quality control standards, every piece performs as intended. < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > is stronger than lumber headers, allowing wider openings with smaller members. < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > can be supplied in long lengths, so it s simple to extend the header over narrow end walls to gain added lateral strength at little additional AND DRILLINGG lulam is manufactured from specially selected and positioned lumber laminations, designed to optimize strength and performance in the structural members.

In some instances, these modifications can be made in areas of the < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > that are not < < strong >STRONGstrong > >HIGHLYstrong >STRONGstrong > > stressed and therefore have minimal effect on the structural capacity of the member.

This construction method enables builders to meet code bracing requirements while reducing wall bracing segments to as narrow as 16 inches next to window and door openings. In the Narrow Wall Bracing Method, the < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > header typically extends over the top of the narrow wall segment, next to the garage opening. < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > beams are readily available in the long lengths that are needed to extend the header over the adjacent narrow walls.

9 The wood structural panel sheathing in the wall segment overlaps the < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > header and is attached with nails in a specified grid pattern. At the base of the wall, a hold-down connector attaches the wall segment to the foundation. These two moment-resisting connections, combined with the bending capacity of the vertical segment and < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > header, provide the lateral resistance normally facilitated by shear walls or braced wall sections of a substantially greater more information on wall bracing systems and the Narrow Wall Bracing Method, download APA s Brace Walls with Wood, Form TABLESAPA provides span tables for single- and two-story garage applications, as well as < < strong >STRONGstrong > >GLULAMstrong >STRONGstrong > > equivalents for sawn lumber and built-up lumber.
