To determine the bond capacity, Equation 5.5 also requires the bond strength τ bLd of the
near-surface-mounted CFRP strip, which according to Equation 5.6 is found from the
result of the minimum of the concrete bond strength and the adhesive bond strength:

For concrete strength classes C20/25 and higher and the strengthening systems currently
on the market, the bond strength of the adhesive according to Equation 5.7 governs:

In this equation the bond stress is expressed in terms of the shear strength of the
adhesive, which according to the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion is given by the tensile
