Timber structures — Glued laminated timber — Component performance requirements

Summary

This International Standard specifies requirements for the components of glued laminated timber
members for structural use.
This International Standard is applicable to products with a finished lamination thickness of not more
than 50 mm.
Although most glued laminated timber is made from coniferous species, this International Standard
also applies to broad leaf species if the tests specified in this International Standard show that a
satisfactory glue bond can be achieved.
The basic requirements apply to structural members of all service classes; however, special precautions
are necessary for service class 3, for example, the use of weather resistant adhesives (see 5.3).
This International Standard does not apply to the determination of strength and stiffness characteristics.
Annex B contains informative materials for formaldehyde emission.
