Abstract

Investigation carried out on M40 grade of concrete having mix proportion of 1:1.81:2.08[1] with water-cement ratio of 0.44 to study the performance of hybrid fiber reinforced concrete. Hybrid fiber reinforced concrete is obtained by mixing of steel and polypropylene fibers. Steel fibers are kept at constant i.e. at 0.9% volume fraction and polypropylene fibers are at 900 g, 1050 g, and 1200 g per cubic meter of concrete. Performance of hybrid fiber reinforced concrete done by studying the behavior in terms of compressive strength, split tensile strength, maximum load carrying capacity of flexure deficient beams.
