A new type of rectangular glued laminated bamboo (glubam) beam had adopted in the world first truck-safe modern bamboo bridge in Leiyang, Hunan, by the authors. The glubam beams can further be enhanced by FRP. This paper analyzes the effect of some parameters, such as FRP thickness, span-depth ratio, strengthen measures, types of node on bending properties. The basic mechanical model is established to predict the failure. Through the experimental work, the flexural stiffness and ultimate load of FRP reinforced beams are compared with those of unreinforced beams. The result show that the analytical model can forecast the flexural behavior of FRP reinforced glubam beams well.
