Numerical and Theoretical Analyses of Laminated Veneer Lumber Beams Strengthened with Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Sheets

This study outlines a method of utilizing the finite element method and a simple mathematical model to predict the behavior of laminated veneer lumber (LVL) beams strengthened with composite sheets. The numerical models were created using the Abaqus 2017 software. The LVL was considered as a linearl...
