Description

Monnet-Seve Sougy glued laminated timber What is glued laminated timber (glulam)? A glulam member is obtained by finger-jointing and bonding timber laminations with parallel grain, with a moisture content of between 11% and 15%. The products are made from at least 4 laminations less than 45 mm thick. The glulam products of the Monnet-Seve Sougy group are planed on four sides with chamfered edges. The timber used to make our glulam products comes from sustainably managed forests (PEFC certification). Glued laminated timber can be used as a structural frame when the span exceeds 6 to 7 metres, or even 10 metres in length, that is to say when solid timber boards are hard to find. We work with 3 timber species We work mainly with spruce, Douglas fir and pine in all standard or bespoke dimensions up to 40 m in length. In our workshops we carry out the cutting and drilling for our customers' projects. We offer one of the widest ranges on the market: beams, straight members with or without precamber, curved members, variable depth, round posts, re-glued beams, timber slabs, acoustic floor slabs, and so on. As you will have gathered, glulam makes it possible to achieve every kind of architecture, the most creative, the most daring, the most complex (domes, high ceilings, etc.). The Monnet-Seve Sougy Group will support you in bringing your projects to life and building the future in timber with you! The strength classes of the glued members are: GL24H for spruce and Douglas fir, GL28 on request. Advantages Strength that stands up to anything An environmentally virtuous solution Exceptional dimensions Modern, highly attractive construction High mechanical strength and excellent fire resistance. These structures mainly use softwoods from sustainably managed forests, PEFC certified. Assembling timber laminations makes it possible to produce members of dimensions unachievable in solid timber. The work can be customised with specific varnishes. The very regular appearance of glulam members is highly prized by the most fashionable architects. Product preservation The glulam products of Monnet-Seve Sougy can be given a colourless insecticide and fungicide treatment for a use class
