 Carbon Fiber Reinforcement Based Composite, CFRC, is a type of composite material which utilizes carbon fibers to reinforce cement-based materials such as concrete. The use of carbon fibers allows for increased strength, stiffness, and durability while reducing weight. Additionally, the inclusion of carbon fibers can lead to improved thermal and electrical properties making them ideal for applications such as structural health monitoring, thermal energy harvesting, and intelligent deformation adjustment. However, there are still many challenges associated with the large-scale implementation of CFRCs, including the difficulty of achieving consistent dispersion of the fibers within the matrix, the lack of standardized testing procedures, and the need for more effective methods of damage detection.
