ABSTRACT:
A composite beam is disclosed. The component has spaced pairs of elongate wood members, the members of each pair being in face to face mating orientation. A generally sinuous shaped spacer rod sub assembly having spacer portions connected at junctures is provided. The elongate member pairs each having mating faces including recesses contoured to receive one of the junctures and parts of connected spacer portions. The connected spacer portions each project angularly in opposed directions from their associated juncture and its recess in one of the pairs toward the other pair of members. Each of the junctures is disposed in an associated recess in the members whereby to provide a composite beam having the pairs of elongate members maintained in spaced relationship by the rod subassembly.
