Five slab specimens, including two reference specimens, without strengthening and three specimens strengthened with CFRP plate were tested to examine the utilizing carbon fiber polymer NSM method in damaged slabs repairing. Examinations were made by comparing the behavior of specimens without damaged to that of preloaded up to 60% from the flexural load capacity of the reference slab. CFRP strips length is the parameter which is studied in this current work.
