Abstract

Concrete has unlimited opportunities for innovative applications; design and construction techniques. It’s great versatility and relative economy in filling wide range of needs has made it very competitive building material. In this present investigation workability, strength parameters of concrete with steel fibers in proportions of 0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5% was investigated for M35 grade concrete cubes, cylinders, prisms. Tests were performed to evaluate the workability characteristics of fresh concrete, Compressive, Split Tensile and Flexural strength were determined at the age of 7days, 28days, 56days, and 91days respectively. Durability of the concrete was tested by immersing the specimens in 1% Hydrochloric acid solution for 91 days.
