To achieve value-added utilization of domestic bamboo and plantation wood resources, this study investigated the feasibility of using flattened bamboo and Chinese fir for manufacturing cross-laminated bamboo and timber (CLBT). Two types of adhesives, one-component polyurethane (PUR), and phenol resorcinol formaldehyde (PRF), and three applied pressure parameters (0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 MPa) were used to fabricate small CLBT panels (375 mm × 500 mm). In this study, block shear and delamination tests were conducted to examine the bond quality and durability of CLBT panels. The results showed that a significant difference in the bonding shear strength (BSS) in both directions. The bonding shear strength in the minor strength direction (BSSₘᵢₙₒᵣ) was 1.81–3.45 times higher than the bonding shear strength in the major strength direction (BSSₘₐⱼₒᵣ). The adhesive type was the major factor affecting the bond quality and delamination, while the bonding pressure had no significant effect on the bond quality and delamination. Compared with PRF adhesives, CLBT specimens prepared from PUR had higher bonding shear strength (BSS) and wood failure percentage (WFP). However, the durability of delamination specimens prepared by PUR was not as good as layered specimens prepared by PRF.
