Modern building material - glued laminated timber
How is it made? This is a material that is produced by gluing 4-6 wooden lamellas along the plane. Unlike massive timber, it has the following advantages:
- does not deform;
- does not crack;
- not susceptible to fungal attack;
- has high strength.
By technical specifications this material is not inferior to brick or concrete. In addition, beautiful houses from glued laminated timber are assembled very quickly. Experienced specialists lay the material with high precision, avoiding irregularities and errors. The walls of such buildings give a completely insignificant shrinkage (up to 2% of the height). They do not need to be insulated, since the profile of the beam allows for the most snug fit.

The perfect combination of quality, price, construction time, environmental friendliness and beauty!
Glulam houses projects and construction prices depend on the manufacturer or construction company, especially if construction company does not have its own production. The construction time depends on the volume and workload of the production of glued laminated timber. But, in general, it is houses made of glued laminated timber that are profitable, both in terms of price, and in terms of construction time and your settlement.
The popularity of wooden houses made of glued laminated timber in Moscow was brought by such properties as the absence of deformation and an almost perfect surface that does not require further processing. Glued laminated timber is assembled from lamellas (separate boards), which are glued together and then placed under a press. Then they profile (give it the required shape). Such material will not warp in the future, wooden house from glued beams does not shrink. A high-quality profile allows you to adjust the individual components to each other as accurately as possible, avoiding cracks and irregularities that lead to heat loss.
Stages of building a wooden house:
- Preparation of draft AR and/or CR;
- Site preparation;
- foundation device;
- Assembly of a house kit;
- Roof installation;
- Electrical and engineering work;
- The device of finishing floors;
- Painting and decorating the house.
Peculiarities:
The features of houses made of glued laminated timber include its smooth and beautiful surface. Thanks to this, home decoration can be minimized: the surface is sanded and a protective coating is applied.
Advantages:
The advantages of wooden houses built using glued beams include:
Beautiful view;
No deformation;
Reliability and durability of the structure;
Warm and durable;
Minimum construction time;
Construction does not depend on the season;
There is no need for finishing.
It is carried out much faster, but despite this, the construction process still takes time. Preliminary procedures take some time. The first and one of the most important and requiring a responsible approach is. Taking into account the wishes of the customer, the characteristics of the site planned for construction, based on the properties glued laminated timber and a number of other reasons that are important for both the customer and the architect, a house project is being created, which then, immediately before the start of construction, will be submitted for evaluation to the customer.
If the projects of glued laminated timber houses are fully approved by the future owners, then they are subsequently sent to ours.
A feature of glued laminated timber is that it can be used to design very complex structures, one-story, two-story and even multi-story projects! Houses made of glued beams are light, but at the same time they have a rigid and durable frame.
Also important feature is the design of buildings with large panoramic windows, long spans up to 12 meters, complex roofs. Projects from glued beams can be very different in style and for any purpose in terms of functionality.
Projects of houses made of glued beams allow you to forget about the decoration of the walls from the inside, except for painting or varnishing. The walls themselves are breathable and durable. In winter, they retain heat well even when severe frost and wind, and in summer they do not overheat in the sun.
Especially appreciated is the fact that glued beams are resistant to shrinkage and will not upset homeowners with the appearance of cracks in the walls a year after construction. Ceilings made from it can be up to 12 meters long and can withstand heavy loads.
Soil moisture is one of the main causes of mold and wood decay. Usually wooden houses requires careful ventilation and the construction of vapor barrier membranes. Glued laminated timber undergoes a special moisture protection treatment, so it is more resistant to moisture.
Prices for glued beam projects
By the way, the price of building a house from glued laminated timber on a turnkey basis will be cheaper than from brick. And such houses are being built 20-25% faster. Because such houses are building semi-finished products: woodworking machines are used in the manufacture of 90% of the details. Then they, like building blocks, are fastened together according to the project documentation.
The reason for the lower price is that glulam projects do not need to build as massive a foundation as for stone houses. Cheaper foundation - less project cost. However, the foundation can be any: pile, columnar, tape or basement.
Ready-made projects are convenient and inexpensive. Project price typical house from glued laminated timber will be only 150 rubles per 1 m2 total area.

- Thanks to useful properties natural wood inside the premises forms a comfortable microclimate.
- The material has minimal shrinkage. This process lasts for six months, due to this, the service life of buildings increases.

Features of glued laminated timber: price and material characteristics
Glued laminated timber is an environmentally friendly building material that is made from natural wood.
Its production is carried out as follows:
- The wood mass is sawn into lamellas.
- The received parts are carefully sorted, as a result of which the material that is unsuitable for construction is rejected.
- During the week, the drying of raw materials is carried out.
- Defects on the surface of the lamellas are eliminated by grinding.
- Parts are glued together and placed under a press.
- A profile is cut out on special equipment.
No toxic substances are used in the production of timber. The adhesive with which the parts are connected is water-based. It is environmental friendliness and safety that ensured such a high demand among land owners for one-story houses made of glued laminated timber.
The cost of a house made of glued laminated timber primarily depends on the raw materials used for its construction.
There are the following types of glued beams:
- flat;
- comb;
- two or three teeth.
Each of the listed types of material has its own characteristics and installation technology, which affects the total cost of construction. For example, the price of houses made of glued laminated timber of the “comb” type will be much lower, since there is no need to lay interventional insulation. This type of material is able to independently provide protection against blowing. The construction technology of Finnish houses from glued laminated timber, where it is used flat type parts, much simpler, but the building in this case will require additional insulation.
A bar with a two- or three-toothed profile belongs to the category of a universal building material. These parts look like a comb, because they have wide teeth-grooves.
A table containing average prices for raw materials for the construction of houses from glued laminated timber on a turnkey basis:
| wood type | Price, rub./m³ (up to 12 m) |
| Pine/spruce (Kirov forest) | 21000 |
| northern pine | 23500 |
| Arkhangelsk pine/spruce | 24000 |

Partial surface finishing with plaster or stone veneer allows you to give the wood more expressiveness.

The first floor is reserved for residential (kitchen, dining room and living room with access to a glazed veranda) and Technical buildings. There is also a hall and one rest room, which can be used as a guest room. The master bedrooms are located on the second floor. Bathrooms are provided at every level of the house.
