Patent

CA 2045295

A novel wooden structural member, having in cross-section, an X-beam appearance, is disclosed and is useful as a beam, post or the like. It is very simple to fabricate and exhibits more flexible shear strength characteristics over known wooden I-beams. An elongate web section has wedge-shaped flange members securely attached to opposite sidewalls of the web so that, in structural member cross-section, the web is inclined and one surface of each of the flanges respectively forms all or a major part of the first and second or top and bottom surfaces of the structural member. The other surfaces of each of the wedge-shaped flanges are respectively in contact with and fixed to opposite sides of the web and preferably extend inward of the web to a depth equivalent to at least one half the depth of the beam. Unlike a joist, the structural member has a constant cross-section along its length.
