A great popularity due to their practical and aesthetic characteristics found houses made of laminated veneer lumber. In addition to their inherent high strength and reliability, houses made of laminated veneer lumber are easily recognizable by their superb appearance. Blanks for glued beams are dried up to 12% moisture, which guarantees the stability of the geometric shapes of the glued beam and minimum shrinkage of less than 2% The technology of gluing (production of glued beams) makes it possible to avoid deformation, shrinkage, shrinkage and cracking during the period of operation of a wooden house from a log, ideally. Not surprisingly, glued beams are often used in the construction of houses and cottages. A solid foundation for structures of this material is not required. The only notable disadvantage is the price. Construction of cottages, cabins, cottages from glued beams can only afford very well-off people Manufacture and sale of glued beams - a promising direction, and in the pursuit of profit, manufacturers often disrupt the technological process, which, naturally, negatively affects the quality of the finished material. Of the main problems faced by consumers, we can note a large number of external defects, lamination of the beam during operation, the appearance of cracks in the walls, poor locking of the beams among themselves and even allergic reactions that occur on certain components of the glue. vidy3.jpgManufacture of laminated veneer lumber is a complex process, consisting of several stages and requiring strict adherence to technologies and standards. Mainly used coniferous wood - pine, spruce, less often the timber is made of wood of cedar, larch or fir After harvesting the timber in the plots, the roundwood is cut to boards of the specified size, which are then sorted and sent for drying. According to the production technology, the moisture content of the material should be 10 ... 12%, maximum 15%, which excludes its possible drying out. Dried boards are planed, then checked for defects (cracks, knots), and, if any, they are necessarily removed on the end splice machine. Finished boards without internal and external defects glue each other into a bar. They are connected with a special glue. It is also important to observe certain temperature and humidity conditions in the shop. Violation of the technology can lead to the destruction of adhesive structures or changes in heat and technical and other characteristics of lamellas during operation. Then, using a special chopping machine in the bar, grooves are cut, which are used as locks in the process of erecting walls. The connecting units, angular joints and technological holes on the production line are cut out depending on the type of the future design. The finished material is additionally treated with protective compounds - antiseptic solutions and fire retardants, packaged and moved to the warehouse. Advantages in the use of glued beams in construction: The construction costs are reduced, due to the use of light foundations. - A small percentage of shrinkage at home in the future excludes the need for alterations and repairs
-low thermal conductivity, if you compare the wall of glued beams, having a thickness of 20 cm, then a brick wall with the same thermal conductivity will have a thickness of 100 cm. -technology glued beams allows you to assemble houses all year round -fast construction of the house, installation of the warm contour of the house on the finished foundation does not exceed 3-4 weeks. - the opportunity to begin finishing right after the construction of the house under the roof -saves the maximally static geometric shape with no internal stress;
-aesthetic appearance of the building, absence of knots and other irregularities. House made of laminated veneer lumber does not require external or external finishing -the absence of cracks. The technology of slat production minimizes the formation of microcracks -stability of the house to dampness and to the appearance of fungus, resistance to decay and insect damage due to previous antiseptic treatment. - strength of the material and structures from it; absence of deformation of the house structures, The disadvantages are in the use of glued beams: - the possibility of cracks in the ends and because of the duration of construction or because of a violation of production technology. -As the main constituent is natural, breathing material, but we should not forget that an adhesive base is also used that has far from ecological properties. Therefore, it is important to get acquainted with the reputation of the manufacturer before purchasing the material and be sure of the availability of quality certificates.
- a noticeable minus is the price. If you are interested in the price of building a house from glued beams - contact us and we will make a detailed calculation for you. For all questions, please call: 8-9600-48-66-58, 8-987-296-29-30
