Qualification Code for Manufacturers of Structural Glued-Laminated Timber
Glued-laminated timber (Glulam) is an engineered wood product requiring precise manufacturing at all stages of fabrication. The finished product can only be tested under laboratory conditions; therefore, quality control of manufacturing is necessary to ensure that the properties of Glulam are commensurate with the specified strengths assigned to Glulam in accordance with CAN/CSA-O86. This Standard outlines requirements for the qualification of shop manufacturers of laminated structural timber that is pressure-glued using clamps or mechanical means other than nailing.
