A close up of our laminated beams. The strength of Glulam posts can be considered more reliable than solid rough sawn. Glulam is also less prone to splitting, checking and warping since the smaller pieces of wood have been seasoned and laminated. This generally makes Glulam more stable than traditional timber. As the 3 laminated sections of our posts are from different parts of the tree, they considerably less prone to warping and twisting.
