Original Abstract

This article describes the evaluation of the durability of joints composed of wooden adherends with a bonded layer of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) fabric. Carbon and glass fibers in an epoxy matrix were studied. The main purpose of their usage with timber in the construction industry is generally the need to improve the stiffness/strength of reinforced members without any influence on their service-life or any environmental impact. From the perspective of the timber reinforcement process, optimal dimensional stability during moisture changes in wood should be one of the most important criteria for such joints. Therefore, FRP/timber joints were evaluated with regard to the influence of real external environmental conditions on the bondline over a period of 40 months.
