Increasingly　shortage　of　river　sand　and　fresh　water　has　prompted　the　construction　industry　to　use　seawater　sea　sand　concrete　(SSC).　The　construction　industry　selected　fiber　reinforced　polymer　(FRP)　bars　to　replace　steel　bars　due　to　its　excellent　corrosion　resistance.　However,　after　long-term　service　in　an　alkaline　environment　or　a　humid　environment,　FRP　reinforced　seawater　sea　sand　concrete　(FRP-SSC)　will　be　degraded　as　well.　This　paper　provides　an　overview　of　characteristics　and　degradation　of　the　SSC　and　FRP,　the　bonding　performance　of　FRP　bars　embedded　in　SSC,　and　the　mechanical　performance　evolution　of　FRP-SSC　beams　and　columns.　The　combination　of　SSC　with　3D　printing　concrete　and　the　replacement　of　natural　coarse　aggregate　with　recycled　coarse　aggregate　are　also　proposed　as　future　research　needs.　As　summarized　in　this　investigation,　the　current　research　provides　a　solid　foundation　for　the　further　development　in　this　field,　which　can　promote　the　widely　acceptance　and　application　of　FRP-SSC　materials　and　structures.　©　2022　Elsevier　Ltd
