Red Stag Glulam Bridges
Description

Red Stag bespoke Glue Laminated timber (Glulam) bridges are a cost and time effective alternative to steel and concrete. Perfect for projects with durability, strength, tight deadline, aesthetic, and sustainability requirements.

With full penetration pressure treatments manufactured to service class 3 requirements, Red Stag engineered glulam made from radiata pine is ideal for weather-exposed and/or coastal applications without requiring additional protection; offering reliable durability and more corrosion-resistance in marine environments compared to traditional materials like steel.

  • Reduced risk of splitting at supports, penetrations, & connections.
