Reinforcement of Timber Beams with Steel Bars: Parametric Analysis Using the Finite Element Method

Incorporating steel bars as reinforcement in glued laminated timber beams is a technique that aims at better structural performance, allowing the reduction of cross-sections. In the present research, based on experimental results from literature about the reinforcement of timbers beams, a parametric...
