Abstract

This paper represents the research initialization towards the fresh and hardened properties of macro polypropylene blended fiber reinforced concrete using Silica Fume. In this study polypropylene fiber are used with 0%, 0.15%, 0.30%, 0.60% and 1.0% by weight of cement and Silica Fume with percentage of 0%, 5%, 7.5% and 10% which are replaced with cement for M30 grade concrete. All of the mixes are tasted with the compressive strength test and flexural strength test for 7 days 28 days. Durability test is also carried out for 56 days. The results from all of the tests are to be compared with control concrete mix.
