Afzal Laphir and George Dolezal have collectively over 50 years of timber engineering experience and over 25 years in the specific areas of LVL and I-joists.
Topics covered at presentaion.
Glue Laminated Beam (GLT)Explore the range, GL13 through to GL18
Explain the structural properties (MOE&MOR) and how they relate to the Australian standards and how based on that information you can calculate basic substitutions.
Wall bracing (meyBRACE)
LVL timber brace, explain the engineering principles behind the product, its application and relevance to speeding up building time frames.
Castellated batten – cladding
Introduce cladBATTEN, a structural LVL trapeze shaped castellated batten to meet the changes/ new regulations of the NCC.
LVL portal frame sheds
Introduce LVL portal frame sheds, what & How (Application & benefits of using a engineered timber frame in high corrosive environments)
I-joist refresher (meyJOIST)
explain the basics of how, when I-Joists are most suitable in the following applications; structural (Australian standards/NCC requirements), price and speed of build.
