Abstract
Laminated wood tower including a plurality of curved modules attached to each other, where each curved module includes a plurality of layers, where each layer includes a plurality of laminated plies, and where a layer includes a first set of plies, where the first set of plies includes a plurality of plies arranged adjacent each other and where the wood grain is directed in a first direction, and a second set of plies, where the second set of plies includes one or more plies arranged adjacent each other and where the wood grain is directed in a second direction, where the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. The advantage is that a self-supporting laminated wood tower can be obtained in an easy and cost-effective way.
Claims15
A laminated wood tower, comprising:
- a plurality of curved modules attached to each other, where each curved module comprises a plurality of laminated wood layers, and where the curved module is elongated and straight in a longitudinal direction and curved in a width direction, wherein each of the laminated wood layers comprises a first set of plies, where the first set of plies comprises a plurality of first plies and where the wood grain of each of the first plies is directed in a first direction, and a second set of plies, where the second set of plies comprises one or more second plies arranged adjacent each other and where the wood grain of each of the second plies is directed in a second direction, where the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.
A laminated wood tower, comprising:
- a plurality of curved modules attached to each other, where each curved module comprises a plurality of wood layers laminated to one another, and where the curved module is elongated and straight in a longitudinal direction and curved in a width direction,
- wherein each of the wood layers comprises a first set of veneer plies, where the first set of veneer plies comprises a plurality of first veneer plies and where the wood grain of each of the first veneer plies is directed in a first direction, and a second set of veneer plies, where the second set of veneer plies comprises one or more second veneer plies arranged adjacent each other and where the wood grain of each of the second veneer plies is directed in a second direction, where the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.
