        abstract = {Steel being widely used material used to take tension in RCC. But the fact that it corrodes with time, and the structure gets deteriorated slowly. The aggressive environment faced by the structures like marine structure, chemical plants and waste water treatment facilities etc are susceptible to corrosion and increased volume of steel leads to cracking and spalling of concrete. Which increases the repair and maintence cost of structure to great extent. Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) rebars have came out be as the alternative to steel. Various countries uses GFRP Bars as alternative to steel, and it has proved to be successful. In this paper we have studied the comparative study of both Steel and GFRP reinforced beams. Six beams of GFRP reinforced and six beams of Steel reinforced with steel being the shear reinforcement in all beams were taken, and tested for flexure, the result and conclusion of the test is tabulated below. },
