Innovative flexural strengthening of RC beams using self-anchored prestressed CFRP plates: Experimental and numerical investigations

•Self-anchored prestressed CFRP plates without the need for mechanical end anchorage.•Significant improvement in bending stiffness, crack width, and load-carrying capacity.•Nonlinear finite element analyses of flexural cracks and crack-induced debonding of CFRP plates. This paper presents an innovat...
