Article 1: St Andrews Anglican Church - Timber Portal Frame





The church is a timber portal frame building using LVL box beams. The church was designed by Innovarchi Architects, and the structural engineers were Timberbuilt, and Reinhold and Stanaway. The church is located in Barry Street, Gracemere, Central Queensland and was constructed in 1995.
The article provided an overview of the construction technique used (timber portal frame). It looked at the materials used in this particular project, the type of joints that occur in a timber portal frame as well as the design features of the church.
