GLULAM-ITEMS FOR THE CEILING

Ready-to-assemble quality conforming to DIN

Quality at a glance
• Available optionally in Si quality for use in exposed locations and nSi quality for non-exposed locations
• Classed as an S10 material in accordance with DIN 4074-1
• Tolerances: Thickness +/-1 mm, width +/-3 mm

Technical data
• Heat transfer coefficient = 0.13 W/mK
• Diffusion resistance ‹ = 20-50
• Bulk density appr. 490 kg/m
• Admissible tensions to DIN 1052-1/A1
• Fire resistance category subject to suitable floor structure F 30B or even F 60B, with corresponding structure /sub-ceiling up to F 90B
• Wood moisture content 12 % (+/- 2% on delivery)
• Shrinkage and swelling per 1% change in wood moisture content:
Length (in grain direction) 0.01%,
Width (radially) 0.19%,
Thickness (tangentially) 0.34%)
• Packaging in books or individually on request

Available in any dimension
The dimensions of the individual ceiling elements are individually defined on an order-specific basis.
The following maximum dimensions are available:
• Length up to 16,000 mm
• Width 600 mm (tongue dimension)
• Thicknesses 80 mm, 100 mm, 120 mm, 140 mm, 160 mm, 180 mm, 200 mm
• Strip thickness 40 mm

Depending on the chosen thickness, the ceiling elements are joined with a single groove (up to 120 mm thickness) or double groove and tongue (from 140 to 200 mm thickness).

the advantages are obvious:

• assembly of immediately loadable elements in record time
• high safety at work
• finished suspended ceiling in visual quality
• high load-bearing capacity with relatively low ceiling thickness
• low tare weight

fields of application

Glulam elements are used in modern timber and object construction, especially in the area of floor slabs.

manufacture and installation instructions

• The elements must be exposed under no circumstances the weather during processing, transport or installation. The installed elements must be immediately and permanently protected against moisture with a suitable film.
• Sufficient space must be guaranteed on the outside of the ceilings for the expansion of the elements. In the case of larger ceilings, also provide expansion joints if necessary.
• Other executions such as fastenings, rests and block-outs must be carried out in a carpenter's-friendly manner and in accordance with the latest state of the technology.
• Only suitable floor constructional systems guarantee optimum sound insulation.
• Coatings should only be applied after the equilibrium moisture content has been reached.
• The elements are stacked with the visible side down, we ask for attention!
