<p>This paper describes the applicability of CFRP bonding to the repair of corrosion damaged steel members. Tensile and flexure tests using steel plate and steel girder with CFRP were carried out. It was confirmed, until the peeling of CFRP, that CFRP-steel composite action was ensured. Moreover, the effect of the design parameters such as, “amount of reinforcement”, “range of reinforcement” and “bonded length” on the stress reduction was made clear. Based on this experimental study, the design method for the repair of corroded steel members by CFRP bonding was proposed.</p>
