Abstract
In the construction of glue laminated structure glue forms as an interface material between the timber. The flexural strength and the mechanical properties of the glue are needed in order to understand the flexural behaviour of the glue laminated structure. The study is aimed to determine the flexural strength, modulus of elasticity and shear strength of the glue. The objective of the experimental project is to investigate flexural behaviour of glue laminated timber beams with different breadth of beam and variable lenghts of glue . The scope of the study is however restricted to only one type of timber that is Light Red Meranti (LRM). The testings were carried out to find the maximum bending stress at the mid span and shear stress at the end distance of glueline. The beam samples prepared were tested in accordance to four points bending test.
