Wood Fabrication Program Offered!
AITC now offers a program to glulam fabricators to help ensure conformance to the International Building Code. The purposes of this program are to establish nationally recognized requirements for the fabrication of structural glued laminated timber components and assemblies, and to provide a common basis of understanding with respect to what constitutes sound requirements for the fabrication of structural glued laminated timber components and assemblies. AITC 115-2008 was developed as the guiding standard for this program and may be downloaded here.

AITC 115 describes the recommended minimum requirements for the shop-fabrication of structural glued laminated timber and related components. It also describes the quality control system and the functions of an accredited inspection agency. These requirements are intended to permit any suitable method of fabrication that will produce a product of equal or superior quality to that specified.

If you have questions or would like to begin the process of accrediting your fabrication operations, please contact Ron Goff at the AITC headquarters.
