Steel-concrete composite structures are very popular due to several advantages over steel structures and conventional concrete. But the Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP)-Concrete composite is gaining importance in the recent days due to its strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance property over the Steel-concrete composites. This paper presents the flexural behaviour of the GFRP-Concrete composite slabs. The composite slab consisted of GFRP deck sheet having sinusoidal/trapezoidal cross section with slag-based concrete on the top of the GFRP sheet. For proper bonding ‘T’ studs made up of GFRP rods were provided at regular intervals. Also, to take care of the temperature stresses, the slab was provided with GFRP rods in both the direction. In the slag-based concrete, 60% of cement was replaced with Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS), a waste product from steel industry. The slab specimens were tested until failure in the loading frame. It was found that the performance of the composite slab with trapezoidal profile was superior to the concrete slab.
