The natural defects present in timber are the source of large variations in mechanical properties. This drawback has been partially counteracted with the use of Engineered Wood Products EWP (glulam, composite I-beam, parallel strand lumber, etc.) instead of solid wood. A few decades ago, fiber/polymer composite materials made their entrance in the civil engineering arena. They are used mostly as strengthening devices. The content of this thesis is related to the use of natural composite materials to strengthen glulam. The weak mechanical properties of wood in tension perpendicular to the grain are often the origin of catastrophic brittle failure. In order to enhance the design value of the tension perpendicular to grain strength, decrease t...
