This paper involves experimental investigation onto the composite behaviour of a hybrid FRP bridge girder with an overlying concrete deck. Two types of shear connections were investigated: epoxy resin adhesives alone and epoxy resin combined with steel u-bolts. The results showed that the steel u-bolts combined with epoxy resin provided a more effective connection; hence a full-size specimen was prepared based on this result. Four-point bending test was carried out to determine the behaviour of a full-scale composite hybrid FRP girder and concrete deck. The composite action resulted to a higher stiffness and strength with the hybrid FRP girder exhibiting higher tensile strain before final failure. There was a significant decrease in the compressive strain in the top flange of the FRP girder thereby preventing the sudden failure of the beam. The composite beam failed due to crushing of the concrete followed by shear failure in the top flange and web of the FRP girder
