Abstract:: In order to promote the research and application of textile reinforced concrete (TRC) for civil engineering structures, with the characteristics of ultra-light, high strength and high durability, and excellent ability of strengthening and constraining cracks, the latest research and application of the TRC materials at home and board were introduced, and the types of fine gained concrete and textiles, the multiple scale interfacial properties of the TRC, manufacture technologies, were discussed respectively. Typical experimental investigations and theoretical analysis of TRC were classified and summarized in details, and the development and application of TRC in the near future were forecasted. Finally, some critical problems and advices in TRC research, development and application were provided: the relevant experimental research on TRC should be transferred to the theoretical and numerical analysis in depth for the large-span spatial structure, and mechanics constitutive model of TRC should be obtained under extreme conditions; the mechanism of reinforcing and toughening between textile and matrix should be researched from theory, which could provide important reference for further improvement of TRC performance to realize the production and application of new TRC material in industrialization.
