Duo/Trio & Glulam Beams

Duo / Trio Beams

Eximcorp offers Duo/Trio & Gluelam Beams manufactured by Hasslacher Norcia Timber Group in Austria as an engineered wood solution using advanced technologies to replace concrete buildings and homes with wooden homes and buildings under the tropical conditions in India.

Eximcorp Hasslacher Duo / Trio Beams

Eximcorp Hasslacher Duo and trio beams as well as glulam productions are tried and tested solid wood products for supporting structures made from solid wood lamellaeof moisture content at about 12% to minimize deformation of wood lamellae and the associated adverse effects on structures due to inherent characteristics of shrinking and/or swelling in wood consequent to cyclic changes in weather conditions. MF or MDI/PMDI (PU) irreversible bond glue, free rom formaldehyde, is used to laminate the wood which also gives its bond a high moisture resistance characteristic. However, the natural formaldehyde in the wood does emit formaldehyde but such emission is negligible, far below the limits set out in EN 13986 or any other international standard.

Eximcorp Hasslacher Glulam Beams

Eximcorp Hasslacher Glulam Special Products

The low level of timber moisture means that chemical treatment of the timber is unnecessary, should the construction happen in clean and dry environment free from tropical insects and termites. However, in areas having insects or termite infestation, suitable prophylactic or durable vacuumpressure treatment of beams by way of preservative should be done before use in suitable doses depending on the local conditions both in wood as well as surrounding grounds.

Eximcorp Hasslacher Duo/Trio and Glulam Beams are ideal for wooden homes and buildings including multi-storey residential or office buildings for all the different applications such as wall, truss, spars and purlins, exposed ceiling and flooring fencing etc.

Advantages of Eximcorp Hasslacher Duo/Trio & Glulam Beams

• Environmental impact of Wooden building is significantly less than concrete reinforced steel building. Besides, wood is a carbon sink and turns the emission in to wood for reuse.
• Dimensionally stable, accurate & stable.
• Strong and light
• Meets EUTR standards
• No visible glued joints
• Minimum of surface cracks
• High load bearing capacity with low density/weight ( see data in attachment)
• Dimensional stability
• Fire and chemical resistance ( see data in attachment)
• High sound and thermal insulation to minimise indoor noise and savings in energy cost in cooling.
• 100% wood source in certified forestry

Preservatives

All Lumbers and Beams are made from natural wood logs grown and harvested in the country of its origin and is free from any toxic chemicals treatment as preservative. As is common knowledge, all wood products are susceptible to insects or termites and/or borers present in different climatic zones in the soil or buildings. It is recommended that the users are applying the coat of suitable chemicals or insecticides on all exposed surfaces of wood in addition to treatment of masonry foundations of the building where the Wood products are required to be use. Fipronil emulsified concentrate at about 3% is one such chemical and effective deterrent against insects and pests or termites in tropical climate zones. However, the application should be in accordance with manufacturers guidelines for effective results. Users own discretion in selection of appropriate chemical and its doses or frequency of such treatment is advised for satisfactory results in the light of experience gained over the period of time.
