Why don't we build with laminated veneer lumber?
Production of laminated veneer lumber begins with the primary processing of wood – firstly, it is sorted, cut into boards and prepared for drying. In drying chambers, the edged board lends itself to the necessary temperature conditions, which guarantee drying of the board evenly over the entire length. Then they are cut to the width of the desired workpiece. This process makes it possible to detect hidden defects of wood, which are subsequently removed on the trimming machines. After this – the process of bonding to the timber.
For situation, when profiled laminated veneer lumber is not cracked or deformed, the lamellas are glued in such a way that the wood fibers are located in the opposite direction from each other. This bonding provides greater strength. With a special machine the glue is laid down on lamellae. For this process special adhesives are used, which have high strength and water resistance.
Therefore, choosing a profiled laminated veneer lumber, it is necessary to pay attention to the cost of the finished material – a good and high-quality laminated veneer lumber can not cost differently in different manufacturer companies. The reason for the low cost may be low-quality cheap glue. We do not recommend to use glued profiled timber in the construction of log houses, as it completely undermines the "environmental" principle, that underlies in the base of construction. In addition, glued timber does not "breathe" and does not create a unique microclimate inside the building, unlike other technologies. Wooden houses of wild log, a profiled timber or logs are environmentally friendly, can be built quickly and have the highest operational peculiarities.
