This paper presents the experiment work to investigate the shear behaviour of RC beams strengthened with externally bonded shallow-angle CFRP laminate strips. Four RC beams with varies inclination of CFRP strips were used; namely 90, 45 and 25-deg. The results of the test shown that shallow-angle...
