At Glulam Timber Engineering, we design and manufacture bespoke Glulam Feature Trusses and Glulam Structural Frames for architectural and structural applications.
Combining structural engineering expertise with traditional timber craftsmanship, we produce exposed timber structures that deliver both structural performance and visual impact.
Get in touchGlulam Feature Trusses combine structural performance with architectural impact. Designed to be visible elements within a building, they bring warmth, character, and structural elegance to a space.
Glulam Timber Engineering has extensive experience designing and manufacturing bespoke Feature Trusses for a wide variety of projects.
Each Glulam Feature Truss is carefully engineered and crafted to suit the architectural vision and structural demands of the building.
Glulam Structural Frames provide a robust and sustainable timber structure for buildings requiring large spans, open interiors, or exposed timber architecture.
Using engineered Glulam, we design and manufacture structural frames that combine strength, stability, and architectural quality. These frames can form the primary load-bearing structure of a building, supporting roofs, floors, and large open spaces.
Glulam Structural Frames are commonly used where architects want to showcase natural timber while maintaining structural efficiency.
Our Glulam Feature Trusses and Glulam Structural Frames are fully custom designed and can be produced in a wide range of styles, sizes, and detailing options.
By combining modern structural engineering with traditional carpentry techniques, we create heavy-section Glulam trusses and frames that become a defining feature of the space.
We offer a complete design and manufacture service that includes:
This integrated approach ensures every Feature Truss and Structural Frame is structurally sound while delivering the desired architectural impact.
Glulam Feature Trusses and Glulam Structural Frames are commonly used in:
Their exposed timber structure creates visually striking interiors while maintaining structural performance.
Architectural Impact
Large timber trusses create dramatic interior spaces with natural warmth and character.
Structural Efficiency
Engineered Glulam trusses allow wide roof spans with fewer internal supports.
Custom Craftsmanship
Each truss is manufactured to your project’s exact specification.
Sustainable Construction
Timber structures support low-carbon construction and sustainable building practices.
Glulam Structural Frames provide a high-performance alternative to traditional steel or concrete structural systems. By combining engineered timber with precision manufacturing, Glulam Frames deliver strength, sustainability, and architectural flexibility.
Long Structural Spans
Glulam can achieve large spans while maintaining structural stability, allowing the creation of open, column-free interior spaces.
Sustainable Construction
Timber is a renewable material with a significantly lower embodied carbon footprint than steel or concrete, helping projects meet modern sustainability targets.
Architectural Quality
Exposed Glulam Structures add warmth and natural character to buildings, making them ideal for projects where the structure forms part of the architectural design.
Lightweight & Efficient Installation
Glulam Frames are lighter than many traditional structural materials, reducing transport requirements and simplifying on-site installation.
Reliable Fire Performance
Glulam performs predictably in fire conditions, charring at a known rate and maintaining structural integrity over time.
Our experienced team works closely with architects, engineers, and contractors to ensure Feature Trusses and Structural Frames integrate seamlessly into the overall building design.
We provide:
If you’re planning a project that would benefit from exposed timber Feature Trusses and/or Structural Frames, our team would be happy to discuss design options.
