Abstract
The research status of several common fiber-reinforced cementitious materials, such as steel fiber cementitious materials, polypropylene fiber cementitious materials, basalt fiber cementitious materials and hybrid fiber cementitious materials, is introduced, and the performance characteristics of carbon fiber cementitious materials and the research status are described in detail, and its mechanical properties, frost resistance, durability and thermal conductivity are summarized. The results show that carbon fiber can effectively improve some of the properties of cementitious materials, so that it can be better used in engineering. However, carbon fiber also has some shortcomings, need to choose to use according to the actual situation, in order to meet the actual engineering requirements.
