<p>This document specifies test methods applicable to unidirectional carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips as external-bonded reinforcements on the concrete substrate.</p>
<p>This document is applicable for the CFRP strips that:</p>
<p>— consist of carbon fibre and thermoset resin;</p>
<p>— are manufactured by pultrusion method;</p>
<p>— have a higher carbon fibre fraction such as over 60 %; and</p>
<p>— have a thickness within 3 mm.</p>
<p>Also, the test pieces for determining tensile properties are cut down from CFRP strips along the CFRP strips axis, and have bonded anchorage block at the both ends.</p>
