Review on Experimental Study on High Performance Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete Using Metakaolin

A review article focuses on the studies done in the favour to understand the concept of reinforced concrete with additions of variety of materials as per the needs. In today’s world, various kinds of civil engineering structures are coming into picture, placing greater demand on material performance, the need for more fundamental information on the behaviour of concrete and fiber reinforced concrete under different types of loads is of prime importance. The above factors and man’s curiosity for inventing new products has led to the significant research on this topic. As we know, brittle failure is the inherent property of the plain concrete, i.e. it has very low tensile strength and low strain capacity at fractures. These shortcomings of plain concrete are overcome by adding reinforcing bars or pre-stressing steel. It is necessary to find out essential properties of the concrete for variety of applications.
