Abstract
In case of Portland slag cement it was observed that using Recron fiber from 0.0% to 0.1% the compressive strength is not incresed, but as the fiber percentage was increased from 0.1% to 0.2% the compressive strength was increased and on further increament of fibre content the strength reduces. The 28 days compressive strength of concrete is higher at with 0.2% fiber compared to other fibre composition but lower than unreinforced concrete. In addition to fiber silica fume was used as a partial replacement to cement. The different percentage of silica fume such as 10%, 20%, 30% replacement was used with 0.2% Recron fiber. The 20% replacement of slag cement with of silica fume gave maximum strength compared to other percentages of replacement, whereas the strength is higer with 30%replacement of silica fume in case of ordinary Portland cement.
