The study involved combustion of 24 structural-sized beams under three-point bending subjected to substantial loading prior to ignition, reaching 90% of characteristic load-carrying capacity. A localised fire exposure zone was established proximal to the region experiencing the highest bending moment. The specimens were categorised into two groups: the first consisted of tituted by glued-laminated timber (B), and the second comprised wood-CFRP (carbon fibre reinforced polymer) composite (BW). Initial measurements encompassed pre-ignition static deflection and load. Subsequently, the specimens underwent controlled combustion, during which parameters including burning duration and deflection up to failure, were documented. Following cooling with sand, two cross-sectional slices were extracted from each fractured beam, enabling to find vector-based contours of the remaining cross-section. The charring rate and the approximate heat flux density for each test were determined, enabling a direct comparison of the results. A statistically significant number of specimens was examined, facilitating a comparative analysis between reinforced and unreinforced beams concerning failure time and form. Incorporating CFRP tapes among wooden constituents was found to increase the fire resistance of the structure, however, the thickness of the wooden material enveloping the CFRP composite emerges as a pivotal determinant. This issue needs thorough testing under standard fire in the future. Nevertheless, the fact is that adding CFRP tapes engenders a distinct form of beam collapse, transitioning from instantaneous cracking in B-beams to ductile failure in BW-beams.
