They are ordered by experienced craftsmen, and in a few months they get a warm and cozy building, suitable for seasonal and permanent residence. But before placing an order, you should familiarize yourself with the features of such structures - advantages and possible problems.
Features of laminated veneer lumber
The demand for glued beams did not appear by chance. The reason for choosing the material instead of other options is a number of its advantages:
- durability, reliability and at the same time naturalness, environmental friendliness and efficiency, because glues are used with international certificates and do not harm health in any way;
- savings on heating, as wood is a heat/cold self-regulator and does not require large costs for heating in winter and cooling in summer;
- durability, such houses serve 50-100 years and more;
- glued timber is quite difficult to set on fire, it may smolder, but it will not catch fire;
- low thermal conductivity, thanks to which walls made of timber easily replace brick masonry of greater thickness and allow you to save on heating;
- high speed of construction - due to the lightness of the materials, the absence of the need for a strong foundation and minimal (up to 1%) shrinkage;
- cost reduction - available on wooden house made of glued beams price (from UAH 8500/m2 in a "box" configuration or from UAH 16/m000 "turnkey") is achieved with the help of savings on the foundation (due to the lightness of the wood), finishing (it is only necessary to paint it with paint or oil) and loading and unloading works ; Also, a long construction cycle is not required, and after 2-3 months you can already live in a cozy wooden house;
- environmental friendliness - the walls of such houses "breathe", providing a comfortable temperature and optimal humidity inside;
- attractive design of the building - even without interior and exterior decoration.
All these advantages can be obtained by choosing a house from any timber, including a profiled one with a thickness of at least 200 mm. But the glued material has additional features - the minimum probability of cracks, the absence of deformations, resistance to fire, fungus and insects.
Purchase of material and selection of performers
In addition to the advantages, glued beams also have a small number of disadvantages, which manifest themselves in the wrong choice of suppliers and performers. When using a cheap adhesive, the material is not very environmentally friendly and not reliable. Violation of drying technology leads to loss of shape and geometry. If the work is performed by non-professionals, the result will not always be of high quality, and the owner of the house will have to spend additional time and money on alterations and improvements.
