For each concrete density, four mixes were designed including the control mix and three different additives: metakaolin, silica fume and waste toner. The waste toner additive was collected from used printer cartridges. The experimental programme was considered to introduce a modified direct tensile test, where splitting and flexural tests were conducted to confirm its reliability. Full scale beams made of normal/ foamed concrete reinforced with steel/GFRP bars were tested experimentally, theoretically and numerically using Finite Element Modelling FEM.Concrete is the second most widely consumed substance on earth after water. However, normal-weight concrete is a relatively heavy construction material with a density of 2400 kg/m3, which adds extra load on structures, resulting in larger foundations and structural elements section. The second issue is reinforcement corrosion, which has been one of the main durability problems in reinforced concrete. Therefore, there is a need for lightweight reinforced concrete that resists corrosion. This research aims to produce sustainable lightweight concrete reinforced with non-corrosive bars, which has the potential to be used in structural applications. The use of Foamed Concrete (FC) reinforced with Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) bars in structural elements will reduce permanent actions on structures and foundations, contributes to more sustainable, energy-efficient construction and cost reduction by reducing structural elements size, labour and energy during transportation and construction stages, reinforcement corrosion repair and maintenanceConcrete Beams Reinforced
