Reinforcement Method with CFRP in Longmen Grottoes Plank Way Slab

A reinforcement method using carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets was successfully implemented to strengthen the plank way slab at Longmen Grottoes. This approach significantly enhanced structural integrity while minimizing additional weight and maintaining aesthetic harmony with the surrounding environment. The study highlights CFRP's effectiveness in preserving cultural heritage without compromising visual or functional aspects, offering a lightweight yet durable solution for reinforcement projects in tourist areas.
