Implication

Review highlights advances in textile-reinforced concrete for structural applications, suggesting novel manufacturing, smart sensing, and recycled materials will expand sustainable construction.

Key Points

To review the current state of technology, commercial progress, and future research trajectories for textile-reinforced concrete in civil engineering.
Synthesized findings from more than two decades of research and commercial demonstrator projects in textile-reinforced concrete.
Evaluated emerging developments in mechanical bonding, automated fabrication, functional sensing, and sustainable materials.
Textile-reinforced concrete enables lightweight, thin-walled, double-curved structural elements with high load-bearing capacity without traditional steel rebar.
Key development pathways include enhancing matrix bond performance, introducing robotic manufacturing, embedding smart textile sensors, and utilizing recycled fibers for improved sustainability.
