In this study, the timber beam was strengthened at the shear span with intermitted glass fiber reinforcement polymer (GFRP). The effect of different numbers of GFRP strips, different orientation angles of GFRP strips to the principal axis of the beam, and different warping schemes of GFRP strips on...
