Bending Strength Performance of Selected Timber Species with Different GFRP Strips Pattern
This paper presents an experimental research aimed in increasing the bending strength performance of selected timber members made from Yellow Meranti and Bintangor species. A series of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) strips are glued on the timber face with different pattern alignment, which is diagonal (45°) and straight (90°) that is bonded using epoxy resins in order to increase the bending strength. The bending strength test under three-point loading was conducted for solid timber member for the respective species accordance to ASTM D143-09: 1992. The results shown the timber member reinforced with the GFRP strips slightly improved by 2 and 5 % of the bending strength. The failure modes of the selected timber specimen were also observed. Both controlled specimens shown visible damage that is cracking at mid-span for Yellow Meranti specimen and shear failure for Bintangor specimen. While, for reinforced specimens, some of the specimens possess no visible damage and some possess the shear failure.
