“…Glulam members are assembled using connection plates and fastened with threaded bolts. The building is designed in accordance with the Eurocode BS EN 1995-1 (BSI, 2004 and BS EN 14080 (Ong, 2015). New oriented strand boards (OSB) form the walls and floors and insulation is provided by spraying hempcrete (a bio-based composite material with hemp shivs mixed with lime render) on to the OSB boards.…”

“…Laminating is a technique that improves the value of the wood material while enabling changes in the wood's properties and can be altered via in various ways which comprise multiple layers of wood, most frequently in the form of veneers (thin slices), glued and pressed together (Gáborík et al, 2016). The established laminated products which are oriented strand board (OSB), laminated veneer board (LVL), Strand-based composites include parallel strand board (PSL), laminated strand board (LSL) and oriented strand board (OSL), and also Glue-laminated timber (GLULAM) (Shmulsky and Jones 2019;Wiegner et al, 2009;Ong 2015). The focal point of this study was to determine the strength of physical and mechanical properties via solid wood and laminated wood.…”

A study in enhancing the strength properties of Rhizophora apiculata by turning the solid wood into an engineered laminated board was executed. The matured Rhizophora species was selected from peat swamp forest in Sibu, Sarawak. The trunk was segregated into three parts, namely the bottom, middle and top portion and subsequently sawn into wooden planks. The laminated boards were cut into specific thicknesses and immediately bonded with an adhesive by pressed drying. Preparation for solid and laminated boards testing samples followed the ISO and ASTM standards. Properties such as the moisture content, density, basic density, static bending (MOR and MOE) and compression were determined. The results show an improvement in properties from the solid to laminated board. The values in density, MOR, and MOE increased in the range of 2-6%, 29-42%, and 13-36%, respectively. However, the values of the moisture content, basic density, and compression, indicated a vice versa trend ranging from 1-2%, 2-6%, and 8-24%, respectively. The bottom portion was more durable and robust compared to the other portions.

The study investigated the elucidation properties between the solid wood and engineered laminated boards of matured Rhizophora apiculata. Harvested logs segregated into the bottom, middle and top portions and subsequently sawn into wooden planks. The samples for laminated boards were cut into specific thicknesses and bonded with adhesive using pressed clamped. Preparation for testing samples for the solid and laminated boards made following the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards. Properties such as the moisture content, density, basic density, static bending (MOR and MOE), and compression were determined. The results showed an improvement in properties from the solid to laminated board. The values in density, MOR, and MOE increases in the range of 2-6%, 29-42%, and 13-36%, respectively. However, values in the moisture content, basic density, and compression indicated vice versa trend ranging from 1-2%, 2-6%, and 8-24%, respectively. The bottom portion was more durable and robust compared than other portions.
