prefabricated wooden houses made of glue laminated timber

Russian HS Code 9406100000.  Prefabricated wooden houses made of glue laminated timber.

HS Group Code 9406 reads: Prefabricated buildings. HS Group code 94061000 reads: Of wood. 

Prefabricated wooden houses which are totally made of glue laminated timber is very popular among Russian customers. Such houses allow to live on a permanent basis in Russian climate. First of all let us explain what is glue-laminated timber and what is the house like which is assembled with use of wooden glue-laminated timber?

Glue-laminated timber is made out of coniferous tree species. 'Laminated' or 'engineered' wooden logs (beams) are quite a different approach to a house build out of solid wooden logs. Glue lamintaed log is a set of wooden boards glued with each other. It is made in order to completely erase risk of solid wooden log's changing its geometrical shapes and physical weight while drying. Changing of geometrical properties and looses of weight and therefore shrinkage is a must evolution of a solid wooden log. To avoid such an evolution with solid wooden log glue-laminated technology is used. When wooden boards are completely dried off they are sticked and glued to each other to shape a form of a solid beam. This allows to put to construction such a glue laminated beam (log) almost immediately when such beam was set up. 

How the glue-laminated timber is made?
Full trees or sawn cants (unfinished logs to be further processed) are brought to a production factory with a dry kiln facilities. Presently many of Russian wood processing enterprises are set up in a form of holdings which are very well financed and very well integrated in different wood processing spheres and therefore most of such corporations have modern and efficient facilities with efficient modern kilns which can execute drying of wood to meet highest standards of wood processing. Before being placed into the kiln the tree is treated: bark is removed and the trees are sawn into boards usually no more than two inches thick. These boards are then taken to the dry kiln, where boards can be dried without causing severe damage to the wood. Timber designated for glue lamination must be brought down below 15% moisture before the lamination process will work, so typically these timbers are dried to around 8-10% moisture. The drying process varies on the species of lumber, but can be done in as little as a week. Once the drying process is complete the planks are sent through a surfacer (or planer), which makes the face of the lumber perfectly smooth. These planks travel to a machine, which then spreads a special glue on the interior boards.

Depending on the type of glue and type of mill, there are two ways to finish the lamination process. One type of glue reacts with radio-frequency (RF) energy to cure the glue in minutes; the other uses a high-pressure clamp, which holds the newly reassembled timbers under pressure for 24 hours. Once the glue has dried, the result is a 'log cant' that is slightly larger than the buyer's desired profile. These log cants are run through a profiler, and the end result is a log that is perfectly straight and uniform. Some wood processing factories are capable of joining together small timbers by using a combination of face and edge gluing and a process known as finger- jointing. Boards which would be scrap at another mill may be used in the center of a laminated log or beam to minimize waste.

ANT Export Department (Russia) sell various types of prefabricated wooden houses assembled from glue laminated timber. Such houses are very popular in Russia both for summer leaving (called as 'Dacha') as well as for permanent living. Once exported from Russia prefabricated wooden houses made of glue laminated timber will be accompanied by relevant transport document: CMR (for truck) or Bill of Ladding (for sea container) and it will read the following HS Code 9406100000. It does not necessarily means that Russian HS Code can match exactly same in international harmonized system coding for a particular foreign country-importer. At list the first 4 or 6 digits have equial meaning in all countries over the world while the 'tail' of the hs code can not be necessarily matched as same. Therefore we advise our customers-importers to check it out with Your local customs broker for correct hs coding of prefabricated wooden houses made of glue laminated timber.
