Strength Properties of Structural Glulam Elements from Pine (<i>Pinus sylvestris</i> L.) Timber Reinforced in the Tensile Zone with Steel and Basalt Rods

The study analyzed potential applicability for asymmetric reinforcement of glulam beams using materials with a higher modulus of elasticity. Reinforcement elements included smooth and ribbed steel rods as well as basalt rods. These rods were placed only in the tensile zone, assuming that they will n...
