Repair including a chamfered bracket and a chamfered bracket component for reinforcing a damaged structural element made from composite materials

A chamfered bracket suitable for being connected to a structural element made from a composite material, comprising:

• a first surface and a second surface, the first surface being adapted for facing the structural element;
• and
• a chamfer located on a first end of the bracket, wherein an angle is defined between a plane of the chamfer and a plane of the first surface, the first surface of the bracket being adapted to be disposed adjacent to a side of the structural element,
• wherein the chamfer defines a chamfer thickness as a distance measured from a first position where the chamfer intersects the first surface to a second position where the chamfer intersects an end surface along a line normal to the plane defined by the first surface,
• wherein a bracket thickness is defined as a distance measured from the first surface to the second surface along the line normal to the plane defined by the first surface, and
• wherein the chamfer thickness is less than the bracket thickness.
