Custom Shapes<br />

<strong>Laminated</strong> timber arches or<br />

pitched and curved beams can be<br />

made in almost any shape. A<br />

Tudor type three-hinge arch is<br />

favored for many ecclesiastical<br />

designs. Radial arches are well<br />

suited to large unobstructed clear<br />

spans, as are pitched and tapered<br />

curved beams.<br />
