Timber is a renewable, environmentally friendly construction material. Moreover, the span and flexural capacity of traditional timber structures are sensitive to many material properties. To improve the poor bearing capacity of timber structures, a bamboo-log composite beam was constructed by using the log as the skeleton and connecting glue-laminated bamboo with epoxy resin adhesive. A three-point stress-bending test was conducted by using three log beams and three bamboo-log composite beams with consistent structural size and features. The fa...
