Abstract

The development of glued laminated timber is raised from the increasing demand of the wood in the mid of the 1900s. This circumstance causes the decrease of wide face wood. In consequence, the wood from industrial-garden forests, which has narrower face and takes less than 10 years of cultivation, is used more. In Thailand, alternative woods (e.g. rubber wood or pine wood) are used instead of teak and chorea. The scope of this article relates to the development of glued laminated timber both in national and international level, dividing in 4 types: 1) glue laminated timber 2) glue bamboo laminated timber 3) cross laminated timber and 4) cross bamboo laminated timber. The study uses the table of analysis, consisting of relevant researches both from Thai and international data bases, to analyze the standpoint of Thailand in glued laminated timber. The study finds that the development of Thai researches about glued laminated timber is corresponding to
international researches. The approach that is most progressively developed is glued laminated timber while the most used is parawood.
