Abstract
The field of civil engineering needs to take advantage of new technologies to improve the quality of construction. The use of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) to improve the strength, durability, and sustainability of buildings is the main focus of this paper. Through the research and analysis of material properties, it was determined that the most suitable material in the field of civil engineering is glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP). Then find out the strengths of the method and existing problems, and analyze the future research direction. It is found that GFRP has made certain contributions to civil engineering, but there are still some shortcomings such as insufficient performance and not being familiar with by the society. In the future, it is necessary to study the design specifications and Aged Test methods of FRP, and find new materials possible to improve the performance of FRP at the same time.
