Abstract

A mix proportion was established to supply 10 different concrete mixtures using 0, 0.25%, 0.5% and 1.0% of different fiber use in concrete. The water-cement ratio of 0.42 is used. The water-cement ratio of 0.42 is used. The steel fiber reinforced concrete gives 20.58% compressive strength increase with addition of 1% steel fiber volume of concrete with compared with normal mix. The glass fiber reinforced concrete gives 14.32% compressive strength increase with addition of 1% glass fiber volume of concrete with compared with normal mix. The polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete gives 16.24% compressive strength increase with addition of 1% polypropylene fiber volume of concrete with compared with normal mix.
