Abstract: The invention relates to a pre-fabricated laminated wood element comprising at least three layers (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, 2f) of adjacent plank or stanchion-type wooden elements (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f) that are connected to one another. Said connection is achieved by dowels (4), which penetrate the layers (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, 2f) of wooden elements (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f), whereby the wooden elements (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f) of at least two neighbouring layers (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, 2f) run in a different direction. The wooden elements (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f) on the interior surfaces of the laminated wood element are at least partially profiled, which permits improved thermal insulation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a prefabricated laminated wood member (1) having at least three interconnected layers (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, 2f) which are made of different kinds of wood (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f) arranged in the form of immediately adjacent boards or mounts, wherein the different kinds of wood (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f) in at least two adjacent layers (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, 2f) have different directions. In order to provide a uniform wood structure, the assembly of individual layers (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, 2f) is achieved by using plugs (4) that extend through the layers (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, 2f) of wood (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f).
