Rebar corrosion test of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) concrete was did. Carbon fiber in concrete improved the compression strength of the concrete, but width and number of concrete cracks was not reduced, carbon fiber has not obvious act for improving concrete corrosion crack behavior. CFRP concrete Corrosion potential was a little high than common concrete, carbon fiber has not obvious act for improving concrete behavior in protecting steel beyond corrosion. The porosity of the carbon fiber reinforced polymer concrete was twice of the common concrete, carbon fiber added to concrete lead to increase porosity and maybe decrease concrete behavior in protecting the embedded steel in corrosion.
