Abstract
Textile reinforcement in timber constructions enables substantial improvement of load bearing behaviour. Failures in wood due to insufficient strength perpendicular to grain caused by anisotropy are reduced. Durability of especially unprotected outdoor applications is increased, too. The laminate used for reinforcement consists of a textile which is embedded in a matrix and connected to the wood by an interface according to figure 1. These constituent parts are exposed to several physical and chemical factors. Only a good compound allow to efficiently use high strengths of synthetical fibres or heavy textiles.
