Flexural strengthening of concrete beams with CFRP laminates bonded into slits

Near surface mounted (NSM) strengthening technique using carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminate strips was applied for doubling the load carrying capacity of concrete beams failing in bending. This objective was attained and the deformational capacity of the strengthened beams was similar t...
