CFRP strengthening, which can be presented as preformed carbon fiber laminates or sheet, being the latter the most well-known, is used in architecture, civil engineering and restoration nowadays, collaborating with all kinds of efforts (compression, tension, shear, impact, flexion…) in every element which forms a structure or enclosure (pillars, beams, joints, slabs, walls…).
