Abstract

Since plain concrete is brittle by nature, the flexural and split tensile strengths developed must be taken into consideration. Plain concrete is robust in solidity; nevertheless, with feeble cutting-edge tautness. Numerous fibres are commonly utilized in the construction sector to enhance concrete's flexural strength, ductile strength and durability properties. The great tensile strength of steel fiber makes it the fiber of choice for usage in the building industry. However, steel fibre has some disadvantages, including a propensity for corrosion. Carbon fibre is a promising substitute for fiber-reinforced concrete when compared to other fibers due to its corrosion resistance, low density, and superior tensile strength. According to the evaluation work conducted by numerous reviewers, carbon has only very few applications. This study gives an overview of carbon fiber, its structural uses in restoration and repair projects and the various characteristics of fiber-reinforced concrete with carbon. The strength, toughness, and flexural properties of carbon fiber as well as the feasibility research on repair and rehabilitation work using various carbon fibers have been reviewed.
