Product Overview:

Beam 16: The Modern Timber Solution

Beam 16 is a high-strength glue-laminated (glulam) timber beam, manufactured by Hyne Timber exclusively for IBuilt and the New Zealand market. Beam 16 is a high-strength, glue laminated, timber beam that can be used for various structural applications including floor and roof beams, lintels, and portals.

Designed for Strength

Manufactured with high grade plantation grown Slash Pine (Pinus Elliottii) in accordance with AS/NZS 1328. Its proven performance gives it broad appeal in both residential and commercial applications.

All components are assembled using only durable, structural grade adhesives. In-house strength testing is validated by EWPAA third-party compliance testing, and it also carries ‘S’ mark certification.

Precambered for performance

Beam 16 is supplied precambered to a standard 600m radius. This engineered curvature reduces the impact of deflection, enabling improved performance compared to conventional straight beams of similar dimensions.

Gauged to match

Designed for efficiency, it features industry standard width and depth dimensions to match other engineered timber products, streamlining specification and installation.

Sustainability

Sustainability is integral to good design – Beam 16 holds PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) accreditation (PEFC/40-31-20), all timber feedstock is sourced from responsibly managed pine plantations.

Range and availability

IBuilt’s Auckland warehouse stocks a wide range of commonly used sizes resulting in minimal lead times when ordering.

Stocked range includes:

Lengths up to 10.8m long in 0.6m increments.

Beam 16 is available treated to H3.1 (LOSP) so it is suitable for use in all internal structural applications.

Easy to specify

Beam 16 is ready to specify through Masterspec and through the new Hyne Design software. Hyne Design is a free web-based software that is a handy tool for designing timber structures.

For specifiers not familiar with using Hyne Design, IBuilt have developed a lintel span table covering the most common spans and loads (see files below). This makes specification simpler; it even covers the hold-down fixing strength required.
