An equivalent size glued-laminated beam is stronger than a solid beam, is generally better quality, and is more dimensionally stable. Glued-laminated beams can span long distances using lighter-weight members with fewer supports than solid beams. Glued-laminated beams can be manufactured curved, making them more versatile than solid wood beams. 2, record 1, English, - glulam%20beam

A pocket connection is typically used when the wall below(i. e., foundation wall) continues to the story above the floor level without a change in wall thickness. The pocket connection consists of a void or "pocket" created in the wall by changing block placement or cutting into the block units after the walk is erected. The bearing surface on which the joists(or girders) bear typically is grouted solid creating a horizontal reinforced bond beam that ties together the walls in the story below. Light-frame builders may not be familiar with ledger and pocket connections. Such connections typically do not find much use in light-frame construction. However, ledger and pocket connections are not new to the building industry. For example, wood floor-to-masonry ledger and pocket connections were used in the United States during the 1700s, 1800s, and 1900s in residential masonry homes and continue to perform satisfactorily. 6, record 6, English, - blockout

Lister Rig Mats provide a solid base for all your drilling needs. Our Rig Mats are also utilized as :· loading pallets and ramps; · barge liners for heavy weight load distribution; · floors for field machine shops and warehouses;. pipeline and pedestrian bridges; · helicopter pads; · tank and camp foundations. The average life of a Rig Mat is 10 years, but many have continued to be active for 15-20 years.... Our rig mats consist of two continuous wood sections with laminations glued and nailed together. The glue between the wooden planks reduces weight gain caused by liquid retention. Strength is mainly provided by the steel beams, and the wood sections assisted by lateral flat bars transfer part of the load from one beam to another. 1, record 10, English, - rig%20mat

Fiber Technologies(US) and the Wood Science and Technology Institute(Bedford, Canada), have developed FIRP, a composite made of high tenacity carbon fibre/aramid yarns and of a thermoplastic or thermohardening matrix. The product is meant for wood reinforcement and for wood base composites, particularly for "bladed-glued" beams(glulam beams)... For example, a beam made of second choice wood(Hemlock-Douglas fir) reinforced with carbon/aramid has its flex resistance increased by 150% while its shearing strength goes up by 100%. These properties bring the second choice product on par with beams made of high quality(fully matured Douglas fir) wood. 1, record 16, English, - high%20quality%20wood
