Conventional steel bar does not have high resistance to corrosion. In addition, considering the cost of conventional steel bar, the search for an alternative reinforcing element continues. In this search, GFRP bar are tested, necessary corrections are made and whether or not they can be used in building elements is included in this study. Both corrosion resistance and light weight of GFRP bar compared to conventional steel bar made this research important. These articles and publication and similar studies have been studied in detail and combined in this study. Many studies with GFRP bar are summarized in this study. Since the search for a new material was made, the necessary resource research was conducted and the studies were guided in the light of these evaluations. The main purpose of this study is to compare the tensile strength values of GFRP bars which are planned to be used in the construction area with conventional steel bar. For this purpose, three GFRP bar were subjected to tensile tests and the results and recommendations were stated in the study.
