Laminated wood materials, having increasingly been found a very large usage areas nowadays, can be described
as structural material made by bonding wooden layers or veneers in parallel to grain direction. It is not an easy
and economical way to use solid wood materials as one piece in large or curved parts. Because, it is not possible
to remove all of the defects which can be knots, checks and abnormalities in grain orientations. Using one
wooden piece in curved parts is not economicial because this increases the loss of wood material and also this
decreases the strength because of having fibers being cut in diagonal direction. In order to eliminate this,
lamination technique has been used. Thus, it can be possible to manufacture high quality laminated wooden
materials with desired shape and dimensions. In this paper, the manufacture, technology and importance of
laminated wooden materials were discussed.
