Abstract

The effect of carbon steel fibers and polypropylene fibers on self compacting concrete was studied in this paper. The self-compacting concrete is a concrete that can be placed and compacted by its own weight. Self-compacting concrete provides several economic and technical benefits and the use of fibers in self compacting concrete extents its possibility. Various researchers were performed the slump flow test, compressive strength test and flexural strength test to study the effect of fibers on fresh and harden properties of self compacting concrete.
