This study investigated the bending moment capacity of L-type, two-pin dowel joints connected with Scots pine dowel (Pinus slyvestris Lipsky), beech dowel (Fagus orientalis Lipsky), chestnut dowel (Castanea sativa Mill.) and oak dowel (Quercus petraea Lieble) and reinforced with basalt and glass woven fabrics (BFRP and GFRP). The tests was carried out to determine the bending moment capacity of dowel joints. As a result of bending test, it was determined that one layer and two surfaces the reinforced with fiber woven fabrics increases the mechanical performance of furniture fasteners according to obtained data from tests conducted on the L-type, two pin dowel joints. This study showed that the joining with the oak dowel was 12% higher than the chestnut dowel, 25% the beech dowel, and 55% higher than the Scots pine dowel (for the bending moment capacity), respectively. According to the bending moment capacity of the samples reinforced by fiber woven fabrics. The highest bending moment capacity value was obtained in the test specimens of reinforced with the basalt woven fabric, the lowest bending moment capacity value was obtained in the test specimens not reinforced (Control). In general, it was determined that wooden dowel species by 31%, and fiber woven fabric types by 41% have been effects on the results of the bending tests.
