The employ of reinforcement technique with FRP offers many benefits to retrofit and repair many construction structures and bridges. The numerical study of the present study aims to scrutinize the nonlinear behavior of beams provided by FRP bars. An numerical three dimensional model is achieved using ANSYS (Version 12.0) Software. This includes: load–mid span deflection behavior, ultimate load and failure modes for samples. The analysis depends on nonlinearity and geometrical of material is adopted. A 3–D sample was created and analyzed for research and study of general behavior of this type of beams provided by carbon polymeric fiber rods. The model presented in this research can be used to represent the practical fiber rods provided in continuous beams. The numerical experimentations using the program was focused on the behavior of the deflection and the maximum loads and showed reliable results and are very consistent with the results of the experimental data.} }
