Poplar (Populus alba) layers were used to construct the three-layer CLT. In first step, the effect of GFRP strengthening of CLT panel with three layers of FRP fastened with a lag screw, concrete screw, wood screw, and steel nail at an end distance of 1 cm on the lateral load capacity was investigated. In second step, the effect of the number of GFRP layers on the LR of the joint assembled with the lag screw with an end distance of 1 cm was investigated. Finally, the main effects of panel strength directions (major and minor axes), fastener types (lag screw, concrete screw, wood screw, and steel nail), and end distances (1and 2 cm) and their interaction on LR were investigated. The results showed that LR was increased by 22 to 53% with reinforcement, which was more considerable in joints with smaller diameter fasteners. By increasing the number of GFRP layers from one to three layers, LR was increased by 27%. By increasing the end distance, changing the fastener types and panel directions, LR was changed 114.7%, 219.6%, and 7%, respectively. The interaction of variables on LR showed that by simultaneously changing the fastener types × end distance, LR changed about 447%, which implied the importance of choosing the proper fastener with sufficient end distance to construct the joints with a metal connector such as brackets.
