Abstract

The composite substance known as fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) is created by combining cement, mortar, or concrete with the proper fibres that are discontinuous, distinct, and evenly distributed. Concrete's static and dynamic properties would be much enhanced and would function as a crack arrester with the inclusion of small, closely spaced, uniformly scattered fibres. High-performance concrete is a kind of high-strength concrete that is used in a variety of projects and contains materials with compressive strengths greater than 60 MPa. This work replaces 0.5%, 1%, and 1.5% of AR Glass fibre and corrugated steel fibre with mass cement to make concrete more durable. For varying percentages of glass fibre (GF) and steel fibre (SF). the mechanical properties, such as compressive strength, flexural strength, and split tensile strength, are assessed at different ages of 3, 7, and 28 days, respectively. In the test, 1% steel fibre exhibited the highest compressive strength compared to the other steel and glass fibre percentages. The flexural strength increases when both fibres' fibre content rises to 1.5%. The flexural strength increases to 37.7% and 49% with inclusions of 1.5% glass fibre and 0.5% steel fibre, respectively. The split tensile strength rises to 35.2% and 42.5%, respectively, with each 1% increase in glass or steel fibre content. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
