- Abstract
This article presents an experimental analysis on the use of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets to enhance the flexural performance of lightweight concrete slabs. The study found that repairing the slabs with CFRP sheets increased their load capacity and prevented crack propagation. However, the effectiveness of the rehabilitation decreased with increasing damage. The article also provides a list of references related to the behavior and performance of various types of concrete structures, which can be valuable for researchers and engineers in the field.
