dc.description.abstract	Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) strengthening is widely gaining appeal in strengthening and rehabilitation of structures. The most common adhesive used in the industry to create the bond between CFRP and concrete is two part epoxy resin. The system shows very good short term performance with this resin. However, epoxy adhesive used in Civil Engineering constructions is very sensitive to the temperature. This paper presents a review of bonding techniques, limitations of using epoxy adhesive and finding alternative bonding agent to replace epoxy adhesive.	en_US
