Abstract
Abstract: In India, major part of electricity is produced from thermal power plants. These thermal power plants use different types of fuels for combustion. During combustion of coal as a fuel in these thermal power plants, a byproduct namely fly ash is produced. Indian coal has highest ash content as compared to coal found in other countries. There are nearly 85 thermal power plants in India which uses coal as source for power generation and thus produces a large amount of fly ash. This fly ash is disposed in soil, which in turn causes a lot of environmental problems. To overcome this disposal of fly ash into the soil, it can be used in concrete by partially replacing with cement. This study deals with investigation for M25 Grade of newlineconcrete to study the mechanical properties of Steel fiber reinforced concrete newline(SFRC) containing fiber of an interval of 0.5% from 0.0% to 2.0% by new line weight of cement. In this study are steel fibres are used and compare properties with conventional concrete. In this study we are casting 6 cubes and 6 cylinders out of which 2 each for 7, 14, 28 days. Keywords: Steel fibres, Cement and Compressive Strength, GGBS, Fly Ash, SFRC, Cement, Compressive Strength, Split Tensile Strength
