Glued laminated timber, also called glulam, is a type of structural engineered wood product comprising a number of layers of dimensioned lumber bonded together with durable, moisture-resistant structural adhesives.
In North America the material providing the laminations is termed laminating stock or lamstock.
By laminating a number of smaller pieces of lumber, a single large, strong, structural member is manufactured from smaller pieces.
These structural members are used as vertical columns or horizontal beams, as well as curved, arched shapes.

A timber roof truss is a structural framework of timbers designed to bridge the space above a room and to provide support for a roof.
Trusses usually occur at regular intervals, linked by longitudinal timbers such as purlins.
The space between each truss is known as a bay.
Timber roof trusses were a medieval development.
Earlier roofs had been supported by coupled rafters - pairs of rafters linked by horizontal beams.
But such roofs were structurally weak, and lacking any longitudinal support were prone to racking, a collapse resulting from horizontal movement.
