This is a study to confirm how to improve and substitute the existing re-bar with other material such as a fiber rope, especially super fiber rope having much more strong tensile strength. 6(b) different fiber rope reinforced beam with a section of $20{\times}30cm$ have been made and tasted as variables designed in the study. The larger diameter of fiber rope, the more capacity of the beam, even though fiber reinforced beam are increased with ten(10)percent, each. Lower capacity of fiber-reinforced beam than normal RC beam has been analyzed theoretically and empirically, based on a lot of experiences of the same size beam test. Fiber rope-reinforced concrete beam does not have sufficient capacity than RC beam due to insufficient bonding capacity of fiber rope in concrete. It leads to decrease beam bearing capacity and crack around lower center of the beam. Therefore, bonding reinforcement of fiber rope beam such as pinning a triangles steel pin in each knot of fiber rope contributes to improving bearing capacity of fiber rope reinforcing beam.
