Abstract
Increasing the stiffness of glued laminated timber beams by gass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) rods. The paper is concerned with the possibility to strengthen the stiffness of a beam using GFRP rods, having assumed that they are pasted between the extreme edge layers of the beam. It allows for subjecting the beam so enhanced to four-sided mechanical processing. It was found out that strengthening a beam with rods increases its stiffness, and the size of this increase mainly depends on the diameter of and the number of used rods as well as on the kind of fibres of which they are made.
