摘要：Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) structures are usually reinforced with steel bars which are subjected
to corrosion at critical temperatures and atmospheric conditions. Also the cost of steel reinforcement plays a significant
role in any RCC construction. The rising prices of steel and their unavailability throughout the year have brought the
contractors and engineers into a great trouble. The RCC structures can also be reinforced with other materials such as
fibres specifically Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP). This paper deals with the study of RCC beams when
reinforced with the Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) as a replacement of steel reinforcement and studying the
behaviour of beam under flexure. The GFRP as an internal reinforcement has proved to be of great interest not only in
India but worldwide.
