Installation of Glued-Laminated Timber Structure with Steel Fasteners
Construction workers are erecting a structural framework made of glued-laminated timber; a timber beam is lifted into place by a crane and connected to the glulam columns using steel brackets.
Workers wearing hard hats and safety harnesses are hoisting a massive glued-laminated timber beam using lifting slings. The beam has pre-drilled holes for jointing with the glulam columns. The column heads are fitted with galvanized steel plates and bolt connections. A worker is standing on a metal scaffold and aligning the beam with the column. Other installation assistants secure the lift on the construction site. © Nanjing Tech University
