Novel approach for strengthening T-beams deficient in shear with near-surface mounted CFRP ropes in form of closed stirrups

Existing reinforced concrete buildings frequently require shear-strengthening to ensure structural integrity, and externally bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (EB-CFRP) have become a wide-applicable approach. However, slabs and geometric restrictions impede wrapping the element, necessitating...
