Abstract

Concrete is a key element which solidifies and hardens after mixing the water with cement, fine aggregate and coarse aggregate due to the process of chemical reaction called hydration. The new habit forming of Recron 3S (polypropylene) fibre is a state of art reinforcing material in many appliances; especially it was found to be adequate in concrete. Our exploratory and examination consists of M40 grade design concrete mix. We provide a constant water cement ratio as 0.4 while adding the fibre in certain proportions. We carried out the test of slump cone, compaction factor, compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength test. We take the strength test at the period of 7, 14 and 28 days. Inclusion of Recron 3S FIBRE in concrete were analysed and compared with conventional concrete.
