Strengthening Scheme Design of the Prestressed Folded Plates. Strengthening the roof was necessary after damage occurred at the end block of the prestressing system. We designed the reinforcement using carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates. We laid up the laminates using a wet lay-up system.
