An experimental investigation was carried out to determine the bending and shear performance of cross-laminated (CL) panels made from date palm leaves. A four-point bending test was performed on 3-layer, 5-layer, and 7-layer cross-laminated panels to determine maximum bending strength and rolling shear strength for the specimens. The mean maximum bending strength for the 3-layer samples was 2.79 MPa. The values of maximum rolling shear for 3-layer, 5-layer, and 7-layer samples were 1.59 MPa, 0.76 MPa, and 1.57 MPa respectively. The results suggest that cross-laminated panels made from date palm may not be a viable structural material.
