Experimental research of a new CFRP-based shear strengthening technique for reinforced concrete beams

A Near Surface Mounted (NSM) strengthening technique was developed to increase the shear resistance of reinforced concrete beams. The NSM technique is based on fixing, by epoxy adhesive, CFRP laminate strips into saw-cut slits on the concrete cover of lateral surfaces of the beams. To assess the eff...
