The tests were performed in accordance with the PN-EN 1542 standard. Timber elements reinforced with PBO fibres were subjected to pull-off tests to measure the adhesive strength of the mesh to the beams.The factors occurring during the test were also characterized, which may affect its results such as the method of application of the tearing force, selection of epoxy glue, surface preparation of the tested elements, occurrence of material defects in the wood and types of substrate destruction.The experimental data show that failure of the timber layer was not observed in all the specimens tested.}, type={Article}, title={Pull-off Adhesion Strength of Poly-p-phenylene Benzobisoxazole (PBO) – Reinforced Timber}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/115112/PDF/12_Paper_730_do%20druku_B5_met.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ace.2020.131782}, keywords={pull-off test, Composite, timber, adhesion, Epoxy resins, poly-p- phenylene benzobisoxazole (PBO)}, }
