Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) have high strength-to-weight ratios, high stiffness-to-weight ratios and high reliability, which leads to the wide application of CFRP in various fields. In this paper, CFRP tie bar was formed by resin transfer molding (RTM), and finite element analysis (FEA) was performed to analyze the mechanical properties of CFRP tie bar based on ANSYS. Simulation results showed that the strength of tie bar with 0° fiber orientation was greater than that of 45°, and the failure mode of tie bar with 0° fiber orientation was different from that of 45°. The following experimental results were used to verify the simulation.
