TENSILE STRENGTH STUDY ON REINFORCED BEAMS

Abstract

In this paper is shown a model (together with mathematical modeling) for quantification the resistance of a wooden item, with and without composites reinforcement. As reinforcement will be used composite materials from carbon fiber (CFRP).Wooden items are from beach dry wood reinforced with special carbon fibers glued with epoxy resin so the obtained composite has a very good flexure and great stifness.
