Abstract. Laminated of Mahang and Meranti wood were the efforts to improve theefficiency of hardwood (Meranti) and light wood (Mahang), so that to be used forstructural timber. Variant of connectors were expected to increase laminate beamcapacity compared to solid beams. Samples have been made include properties materialsamples and laminated beam samples with dimension 76 x 5 x 5 cm. Beam sampleswere3 types of connector i.e. glues, nails and bolts. The capacity was obtained by providedone point load at the center of span. In addition to load force, deflection were alsorecorded which then analyzed the flexural capacity, MOR and MOE. The result showedthat at the limit deflection, the glue laminated beam (BL LM) has a higher averagecapacity than the bolt laminated beam (BT BL) and the nail laminated beam (BL PK).In contrast, at the ultimate conditions, BL PK has a higher capacity rather than theothers. At the same time, BL LM has a higher average of MOE of 6818.88 MPa andBL PK has average of MOR 3 times larger than Meranti solid beam (BL ME)
