Abstract

There is an increasing worldwide awareness in applying fiber reinforced concrete structures for civil
infrastructure applications. Concrete is most largely used construction material in the world. The fibers used in FRC
may be of different materials like steel, G.I., carbon, glass, asbestos, polypropylene, jute etc. In this project we have
use POLYPROPYLENE & STEEL FIBERS. The addition of these fibers into concrete mass can intensely increase
the compressive strength, flexural strength and impact strength of concrete. Comparing the result of FRC with plain
M20 grade concrete, this project authorized the positive effect of different fibers with percentage increase in
compression of sample at 7, 14 and 28 days, analyzed the thoughtfulness of accumulation of fibers to concrete with
different strength.
