Abstract
The present study evaluates various techniques for flexural strengthening of slabs by bonding carbon fiberreinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets and then develops a new bonding method called externally bonded reinforcement and mechanically fastened by nailing (EBR-MFN). A total of 18 unreinforced unidirectional concrete slabs with the dimensions of 500
