Standard glulam sections (GL24h, common sizes) are typically available within 1-2 weeks. Custom sections, curved beams, or higher grades (GL32h+) require 4-8 weeks. Very large or complex elements (curved, tapered, or exceeding 12m length) may require 8-12 weeks. Always confirm lead time at specification stage.
