Review article

The article suggests a new way of joining wooden elements using composite materials - unidirectional carbon fiber tapes on epoxy matrix, which can be applied for reinforcing wooden structures. The theory of composite rods of A. R. Rzhanitsin to the calculation of clips from unidirectional carbon fiber tapes and epoxy matrix (HCclips), as well as the experimentally determined stiffness coefficient of shear ties, the actual bearing capacity, the resistance of the connection shear area for the square cut and the linear joint is considered.
