Abstract
In order to investigate the mechanism of the effect of asymmetric reinforcement on the static-bending properties of wood, this paper tests and analyzes the static-bending properties of SPF wood and seven different types of asymmetric fiber surface-reinforced wood (AFRWC) formed by SPF wood as the substrate and bamboo and carbon fibers as the reinforcement materials. The results of the study found that (1) the moduli of rupture of the seven types of AFRWC were increased to varying degrees, but the static-bending moduli of elasticity increased or decreased; (2) the asymmetric reinforcement changed the cross-section strain distribution and damage type of the wood in static bending; (3) the results of the cross-section strain-field tests and the ABAQUS finite element simulation showed that the asymmetric reinforcement method of bonding the bamboo material and the two layers of CFRP in the compression and tensile zones, respectively, can greatly enhance the static-bending performance of the wood. The error between the simulated and measured values of specimens MOR and MOE is only −0.7% and −7.3%, respectively. This type of asymmetric reinforcement makes it possible to obtain a more reasonable cross-section stress distribution.
