Glulam In Australia
Australia has a long history of timber buildings
Glulam has been a part of that history for many years and has been used on some very unique projects.
• In Europe and North America there exists:
• A cultural attitude towards a preference for timber in both
structural and non-structural uses.
• Climatic conditions that forces sporting activities indoors
• There is an established and recognised third party certification
schemes providing the customer with confidence in both the
image of the industry and the quality of Glulam.
• No similar scheme existed in Australia prior to the
establishment of the GLTAA.
Glulam In Australia
• In 1989 The Glue Laminated Timber Association of
Australia (GLTAA) was formed
• The GLTAA set Industry Standards and implemented
a code of practice
• The GLTAA quality mark ensures designers and
builders they can rely on the Glulam product to
perform to specification.

• Glue laminated products are also Referenced in
Australian Standards
• AS/NZS 1328.1:1998
Glued laminated structural timber - Performance requirements and minimum production requirements
• AS 1720.1-2010
Timber structures - Design methods
Glulam In Australia
• Engineered Glulam
• Sustainable
• Environmentally Responsible
• User friendly.
• Provides Flexibility in Design.
• High Strength to Weight Ratio.
• Chemical and Acid Resistant.
• Non Corrosive
• Fire Resistance
Architect: BCC City Projects OfficeEngineer: AURECON (formerly Connell Wagner) National Award Sustainable Projects – Australian Institute of Project Management The use of deep section laminated timber beams was identified very early in the design process as a means of providing an efficient and low maintenance structural system to span over the salt water laden indoor pool enclosures.
CSIRO Aquaculture Architect: Architectus
Engineer: Bligh Tanner• Avoidance of steel in the marine environment• Robustness/longevity/low maintenance• Flexibility for future alteration• Low embodied energy
High Strength to weight with added aesthetic appearance

Glulam In AustraliaSolid timber beams allow many different connection types to be used:
• Bolted – Steel Plates to the outside faces of beams Slotted with steel plates inside the beam Flitch plates with steel plates between multiple beams
Epoxy Set – Expressed Steel for external fixing Fully Hidden for decorative and structural applications
Screwed – Products like Spax Screws presented today Timber Rivets Plywood or Steel Gussets – Nailed, Screwed or
Bolted
