Timber Structures

Engineered timber construction at commercial and infrastructure scale. From post-and-beam frameworks to park shelters, we build structures that combine the warmth of timber with the precision of modern engineering.

Timber at Infrastructure Scale

Timber construction isn't just decks and fences. At Ram Contracting, we work with engineered timber systems designed for public and commercial environments — structures that need to meet building code, handle heavy foot traffic, and last decades in New Zealand's demanding climate.

Our team has the experience and the equipment to handle projects from initial site preparation through to final handover, working directly with engineers, architects, and council project managers.

  • Laminated and engineered timber beams
  • Post-and-beam structural frameworks
  • Park shelters, gazebos, and shade structures
  • Viewing platforms and observation decks
  • Structural components for larger construction projects

What Sets Our Structural Work Apart

Material Knowledge

Timber is what we know. We understand species selection, treatment grades, and how different timbers perform in different conditions — from coastal salt air to bush-line moisture.

Council-Grade Standards

Every structural build meets the standards that council and government procurement expects. ConstructSafe certified, GETS registered, and experienced with the compliance frameworks that public projects demand.

End-to-End Delivery

From site assessment through to completed handover, we manage the full build. Our team handles foundations, structural framing, and finishing — one contractor, one relationship, one standard.

Heavy Equipment Capability

Infrastructure-scale timber work requires more than hand tools. We bring the plant and equipment to handle heavy laminated beams, pile driving, and site access challenges that smaller operators can't.

Climate-Aware Design

New Zealand's weather tests everything. We select treatments, connection systems, and construction methods that account for UV, moisture, wind, and the specific conditions of each site.

Proven Track Record

Over $1.4 million in Auckland Council work in a single year. Our structural work is standing in parks, reserves, and public spaces across the region — built to last and maintained to standard.

The Right Equipment for the Job

Structural timber work often means heavy lifts, deep foundations, and challenging site access. Our fleet and plant capability means we can handle the logistics that make or break an infrastructure project.

Whether it's craning laminated beams into position or driving piles in a remote reserve, we come equipped to deliver — not to discover what we're missing once we're on site.
