In this study, the effects of reinforced corner joints by polymer composite layer in case-type furniture have been analyzed experimentally and statistically in laminated particleboard material. The failure loads of corner joints have been analyzed experimentally under compression and tension moments. These joint types are dowel (D), dowel+fabric from the outside (DCO), dowel+fabric from the inside (DCI), dowel+fabric from the outside and inside (DCOI), and dowel+fabric from the edge (DCE). The test results were analyzed statistically by Weibull distribution. Results show that the failure load takes its highest value in the DCOI case both for the test results and for 95% reliability under Weibull distribution. On the other hand, it takes its lowest value in the D case. Reinforced corner joints are more strength than unreinforced corner joints. In addition, the 95% reliability value for each corner joint configuration is approximately equivalent to the 0.52 value of the failure load.
