e-beam
For rafters supporting roof and ceiling loads, roof beams supporting trusses or other roof and ceiling loads, and verandah or awning beams.
Roof framing can be one of the most complex parts of a build. Loads, spans, roof geometry, bracing, connections and installation sequencing all need to work together to achieve a practical and compliant structural outcome.
Wesbeam’s roof systems provide engineered timber options for conventional stick roof construction and more complex roof structures. Supported by span tables, design tools and technical expertise, Wesbeam helps builders, designers and engineers select the right roof framing product for the right project.
For rafters supporting roof and ceiling loads, roof beams supporting trusses or other roof and ceiling loads, and verandah or awning beams.
For rafter applications where lightweight, straight, long-length members support roof cladding and ceiling loads.
An engineered LVL underpurlin designed for conventionally framed stick roofs, working as part of a roof framing system supported by e-strut.
An engineered LVL roof strut designed to support rafters and work with e-purlin in tile and metal sheet roof systems.
A factory-manufactured splayed LVL beam designed as an alternative to steel universal beams in stick roof construction, helping reduce on-site cutting and improve buildability.
Reduced reliance on steel
Engineered LVL roof systems can help reduce the need for steel beams in selected roof construction applications.
Improved buildability
Straight, consistent members support more accurate installation and easier handling on site.
System-based support
Wesbeam roof products are designed to work together, helping simplify product selection and roof framing design.
Wesbeam’s Structural Engineering + Design Division
Wesbeam’s Structural Engineering + Design Division can assist with roof framing product selection, design review and practical guidance across conventional and more complex roof applications. Early engagement helps identify opportunities to reduce complexity, improve buildability and select the most suitable engineered timber solution.
