The work in hand aims the theoretical-experimental investigation of the mechanical behavior until rupture of Pinus oocarpa s wood beams reinforced externally for bending with glass and jute epoxy-based composites. In the experimental program, the mechanical behavior under elevated temperatures of Pinus oocarpa was investigated. A tendency to reduce the elastic modulus and the compressive strength was verified with the increase of the temperature, which was traced back to the x-ray diffraction analysis. Tension tests on glass and jute fiber reinforced composites were performed showing a brittle and linear elastic behavior until rupture. Beside this, twenty two beams, with cross section of 10x15cm and 300 cm of length, was tested. The beams were divided into five groups: five non-reinforced beams, five reinforced beams with one fiberglass layer, six with three fiberglass layers, one with one layer of jute fiber and five with three layers of jute fiber. In the theoretical study, a basic model of the composite section for the elastic range was applied and two bilinear elasto-plastic models. From the comparison of the experimental and theoretical results, it was concluded that the first model is the best one to be applied in project. It was verified that all the reinforced beams presented an increase of the ultimate force varying from 16 to 26 per cent when considering the jute composites and from 54 to 81 per cent for the glass ones. It has been found that, with the addition of glass fibers, a change in the mode of rupture was observed. Without the reinforcement, the beams fractured with pure tension. When the composites were used as external reinforcement, some beams presented a small plastification on the compression zone. It was also observed that the jute fiber composites considerably modified the stiffness of the beams even with a lower gain in the load bearing resistance.
