If you make a laminated-plywood spar with the laminations vertical, it
will be more susceptible to bending forward-to-back (doing it horizontal
makes it so that if there's bending, it's up and down...
Also, for the solid-laminated, bent design (which is pretty heavy and
thus not used in the KR
Hi Tony
>From what little I know. The laminations should run at 90 degrees to the
sheer force. Therefore the laminations should be horizontal on a spar.

If a wood member is subjected to a bending load, then yes, with some
species, grain orientation matters.
The wood in the spars is not subjected to bending loads. At least very
little compared to the compressive and tensile load that is placed upon
them.
Under compressive or tensile loads grai
Now that is a good question. I look forward to comments.

I'm about to start laminating the timber to form my centre section

the laminations significant? I'm not sure why but all the laminated
timber beams I've seen have the lamination layer horizontal. I can do
this but in this case I

Joe,
I have been very pleased with my set up ever since I designed it. The only
thing I would change is to remove the marine hatch spring I used to hold
