Abstract
A wood structural member of the present invention, such as a laminated wood beam, a wood I-beam, or a truss, includes multiple synthetic fiber reinforcements. In a preferred embodiment, the reinforcements include synthetic fibers that are arranged parallel to one another and aligned with the longitudinal direction of the reinforcement and, therefore, accordingly the wood structure. The fibers are maintained in position by a resin encasement. The surface of a reinforcement to which a wood segment is bonded is adapted so that the reinforcement may be bonded to the structural member with nonepoxy adhesives, such as resorcinol, commonly used in the laminated beam industry.
