Abstract :Traditional wooden structures often face deterioration due to elevated levels of humidity and temperature. When wood beams suffer dam-age, the typical approach has been either replacement or reinforcement with steel. However, there remains a pressing need to fortify and restore these structures, thus averting the necessity for demolition. The strengthening and rehabilitation of such existing wooden edifices have emerged as a focal point for numerous re-searchers. In recent times, Fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) are used in various areas such as buildings and bridges due to their ease of application, light weight, high strength and resistance to environmental effects. A multitude of researchers have successfully employed FRP composite materials in fortifying wooden members and structures. In this study, 70x70x1200 mm chestnut beams were strengthened 1, 2, 3 layers and 300 mm, 600 mm, 900 mm length with Basalt-FRP fabrics. Beams reinforced with fiber reinforced polymers were subjected to bending tests. As a result of the bending test, it was determined that the bending properties of the beam increased as the number of wraps and length increased.Keywords : Sarma katmanları sayısı, kestane kirişler, Bazalt-FRP, sarma uzunluğu
