Abstract :

Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) is known for its higher paste volume, which can lead to increased cracking and a higher creep coefficient, making it brittle. The construction industry must reject such fragility in concrete. An effective method to improve the concrete's flexural and ductility properties is by incorporating fibres. These fibres significantly enhance its capacity for absorption energy and reduce the occurrence of cracking. Three specimens were tested for each case. Nylon fiber has shown better acceptance test results followed by Synthetic fiber when results are compared. To accomplish the study's goals, every fibre was added to concrete mixtures in the following proportions: 0.5 per cent, 1 per cent, 1.5 per cent, and 2% by the weight of cement.
