Reinforced Steel bars used in concrete construction are particularly susceptible to corrosion because they don't have enough corrosion resistance, which reduces durability and long-term performance. Glass-fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) rebar emerged as a promising alternative to traditional steel reinforcement, with excellent results in terms of corrosion resistance. The unique advantages of GFRP over steel bars, such as strong resistance to corrosion, higher tensile strength than steel bars, and a 1/4th of the weight of steel bars, which decreases shipping and labor costs, are now entering the market as a solution to the aforementioned issues. This study compiles the most significant research findings on the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams. A comprehensive review of the literature on the flexural behaviour of RC beams reinforced with steel and GFRP bars is also outlined in this paper.
