I am currently undertaking a project that incorportaes a Glulam Timber Diagrid Barrel Vaulted Roof.
Has anyone here had any experience of such a form of construction that they would be willing to pass on.
The arch spans approx 38M and maed up of 4m grid primary members. These Glulam members being 585X160mm
This strucure is supported on a series of structural steel columns and braces but giving a claer span.
I can understand how it could be erected and looks as though a degree of off site modularisation could be achieved. Would be interesting to gain knowledge from anyone with first hand experience, lesson learnt etc.
