historic roof trusses, rehabilitation, stabilization, high-strength carbon fibresAbstract
The survey of selected historic roof trusses performed within the NAKI
DF12P01OVV037project revealed numerous failures and defects of joints of roof truss elements of
historic and listed buildings. Based on the results of the survey, the article outlines potential
rehabilitation and reinforcement techniques of joints of roof truss elements in which the most
frequent defects and failures were found using composite fabrics based on high-strength carbon
fibres and epoxy resin (CFRP).
