Abstract	This critical review examines the use of glass fibre-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars as an alternative reinforcement material in flexural members. With the increasing demand for sustainable construction materials, GFRP bars have emerged as a promising substitute for traditional steel reinforcement due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and non-magnetic properties. This paper evaluates the mechanical properties, durability, and bond behaviour of GFRP bars in flexural members based on a comprehensive review of existing literature. Additionally, challenges and limitations associated with the use of GFRP bars are discussed, along with recommendations for future research and practical applications.
