Abstract:
This paper deals with the experimental study for M25 grade of concrete having mix proportion 1:1:2 with water cement ratio 0.44 to study the compressive strength of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) containing fibers of 0%, 0.45%, 0.95%, 1.45%, and 1.95% volume fraction of hook end steel fibers were used. Result data obtained has been studied, analyzed and compared with a control specimen (0% fiber). A relationship between compressive strength vs days represented with the help of tables and graphs. Result data clearly shows percentage increase in compressive strength for M25 grade of concrete in 24 hours, 7 days, 14 days, 28 days with respect to the variation in % addition of steel fibers. This research is based on the use of steel fibers in structural concrete to enhance the mechanical properties of concrete. The purpose of the study is to determine and compare the differences in properties of concrete without containing fibers and concrete with fibers.
