Durability of Epoxy Adhesives and Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer Laminates Used in Strengthening Systems: Accelerated Ageing versus Natural Ageing

This work addresses the durability of structural epoxy adhesives and carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates typically used in strengthening of existing reinforced concrete structures exposed to natural ageing. The experimental program included four natural (real) outdoor environments induc...
