Abstract

Self compacting concrete (SCC) is presently a developing procedure in the field of concrete
innovation. SCC is an inventive plan to handle the issue of cementing through thick reinforcement.
SCC is novel, due to its properties, similar to fill capacity, stream capacity, pump capacity, and
make creation of concrete more industrialized. The utilization cementations its material like fly ash
makes the concrete practical. It become important to build up a compaction free creation system
consequently decreasing the general expense of the venture; improve the nature of work, and giving
wellbeing in workplace. The expansion of filaments into the concrete has been found to improve a
few of its properties like tensile strength, cracking resistance, impact, ductility, wear and tear etc.In
the present study an experimental investigation was conducted on M35 grade self compacting
concrete by using steel fibres and corn husk fibres. The percentage of steel fibres and corn fibers
used in the proportion like 0%SF+0%CHF, 1%SF+0%CHF, 0.5%SF+0.25%CHF,
0.75%SF+0.5%CHF, 1%SF+0.5%CHF. The results like compressive strength, tensile strength and
flexural strength values are studied along with this strength values durability is also studied for M35
self compacting concrete
