This article presents a review of research in the field of shear tests of beams with longitudinal and transverse FRP reinforcement. The research review includes a summary of the parameters of various variables: type of reinforcement, depth of the element, width of the beams, shear span to depth ratio, compressive strength of concrete, longitudinal and transverse reinforcement ratio, modulus of elasticity of bars, shape of stirrups, comparison with elements reinforced with steel bars, as well as the static scheme. Based on the foreign studies the own research program has been proposed.
