Carbon fibre strengthening is a widely used technique for reinforcing and enhancing the structural integrity of existing reinforced concrete structures. This method involves bonding carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) plates to concrete elements, providing increased strength and stiffness to the structure.
The technique can be expanded to strengthen timber structures, brickwork and composite beams. Carbon fibre can provide elegant solutions to difficult structural problems.
