To know more about the bond layer’s long term properties between carbon fiber reinforced polymer(CFRP) sheets and the wood member as well as its connecting point,shear creep performance was studied using a consistent load with the Burger model.And samples were placed in dry conditions (temperature 60℃,relative humidity 90%) and wet conditions(temperature 24℃,relative humidity 45%).Results showed that the Burger model precisely simulated the bond layer’s short-term shear performance(correlative coefficient R~2≥98%). Compared to dry conditions,with wet conditions, the amount of creep was larger.Also,with an increase in thickness of the bond layer,creep deformation and stress relaxation increased.For high stress levels,a high creep rate,which could lead to a fracture of the bond layer,should be contained. Under the consideration of safety,a pressure(above 0.05 MPa) should be placed on the connection process between CFRP and wood to reduce the thickness of the bond layer.Also,in application,the shear stress level of the bond layer should be maintained within 50%of the maximum stress level.
