Sizes & Specifications

Vicbeam manufactures and supplies different species of timber ranging
from plantation softwoods to hardwoods. Below are details of timber sizes, durability and grade appearance for your project. 

Among the different timber species are mechanical properties measured for timber engineering. Each GLT timber performance are based on characteristic values for structural design as per GL Grades. Custom sizes and timber face lamination are available upon request.
