What to pay attention to when choosing a construction beam
An ordinary beam in the assembly is simple, easily processed, since the wood still remains wet. As a result, deformation is possible – the beam will begin “news”. In some cases, this process can give unpredictable results.
Profiled beam – new material in the field of construction. The name immediately indicates that the design has a profile. This material is more expensive than a conventional beam, but it will be measured precisely by size, which will not leave a single chance of penetrating the house of cold. For a home from a profile beam, no insulation needs.
The strict timber is neat and beautiful, but be sure to follow the shrinkage – the beam can slightly lead. Making a minimum shrinkage is the main task of carpenters.
