Abstract

Concrete is one of the most widely recognized development material for the most part delivered by utilizing locally accessible ingredients. The present trend in concrete technology is towards increasing the strength and durability of concrete to meet the demands of the modern construction. The main aim of the study is to study the effect of glass fibre and steel fibers in the concrete. FRC has the high tensile strength and fire resistant properties thus reducing the loss of damage during fire accidents. In the present work the strength studies are carried out to compare the glass and steel fiber concrete. The FRC is added 0.5, 1, 2 and 3% are added for M20 grade concrete. Result shows the percentage increase in compressive strength, flexural strength and split tensile strength for 28days.
