Adhesive Through-Reinforcement Improves the Fracture Toughness of a Laminated Birch Wood Composite

<div>Load-displacement curves during double cantilever beam (DCB) mode I fracture toughness tests of specimens with 6 different levels of through-reinforcement (including the control): (a) reinforcement levels less than 24 (&lt;1.43/cm<sup>2</sup>); (b) reinforcement levels greater than 39 (&gt;2.33/cm<sup>2</sup>).</div>
