Abstract

An overall outline is given for the development of the glued laminated timber structures in China. Different types of glulam structures built in recent years, such as gymnasium, bridges, public buildings, traditional architecture, landscape structures have been discussed. During the development of glulam structure in the future, raising design and produce level will be the most important question we confront and should be settled.
