The composition of the construction kit of the house made of glulam beams
The house made of glulam beams includes a set of parts (constructor), ready for assembly on your site. The cutting of all joints in the lumber provided for in the project is carried out on CNC equipment, i.e. "Krusimatic G-1". (Switzerland), Krusi (Switzerland) and STROMAB Autoblox (Italy). Control files are created in the licensed software K3-Cottage (Russia) and CAD-program Cadwork (Switzerland).
The use of these software products allows you to produce parts of home kits with a high degree of readiness and accuracy. This guarantees tight connections, the use of additional finishing joints is not required and allows you to build a building as quickly and efficiently as possible.

FAQ
We make glued beams from pine or spruce coniferous wood
species that grow in the taiga zone of the forests of Russia.
species that grow in the taiga zone of the forests of Russia.
We recommend glued beams with a minimum thickness of 8 in(202 mm). This wall thickness has the necessary indicators for thermal conductivity. The cost of heating in homes with such a thickness of log will be minimal. Go to our section on the selection of the cross-section of the beam.
It is possible, but we recommend to make external and internal walls from a bar of the same section, for uniform shrinkage of the structure. The minimum allowable difference in the thickness of the beam, no more than 1.57 in(40 mm).
For a house made of glued beams, if you follow the basic rules of operation, even 100 years are a normal service life.
The approximate construction time of the house with a total area of 2150 sq ft, about four weeks.

Only the most eco-friendly and high-quality adhesive system 1257/7557 produced by AkzoNobel (Sweden) is used for gluing log.
The glue is not harmful.
The strength of the adhesive joint is higher than the strength of wood.
If the recommended temperature and humidity conditions are not observed, thread-like (spider web) cracks may appear on the wood mass. This is a normal process.
It is possible, provided that a stable microclimate is created inside the room (a well-established temperature and humidity regime).
The house must be painted immediately after assembly, if the temperature regime allows (the average daily temperature is not lower than 45 F).
