An article and method for reinforcing structural elements is provided. The article includes a carbon fiber strip with a removable cover sheet. Upon removal of the cover sheet, a clean and roughened surface on the strip, defined in part by a bonding agent, is exposed. The product is adhered to a structural element by applying an epoxy to the structural element and placing the roughened surface of the carbon fiber strip onto the epoxy. To firmly adhere the article to the structural element, uniform pressure is applied with the help of an external vacuum pump until the epoxy cures and the product is firmly adhered to the structural element.
