Abstract
The aim of the paper was to study the feasibility of using flax fiber by checking the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength by varying its percentages by 0%, 1, 2 %, and 3 % by weight with cement in concrete mix. All the tests were conducted by following the guidelines set by Indian Standard. It was found that all the mechanical properties of concrete were increasing by adding flax fiber up to 2 % and it was the optimum percentage up to which the compressive, split tensile strengths were increasing by 11.37 %, 18% and 30 % after this percentage there was reduction in strength was noticed.
