The project shows the comparison between the conventional concrete and SCFRC using hybrid fibre ( banana and sisal fibre). Concrete made with Portland cement has certain characteristics; concrete is relatively strong in compression but it is weak in tension. by the use of conventional rod reinforcement and to some extension by inclusion of a sufficient volume of certain fibre the weakness in tension can be overcome. Fibre Reinforced Concrete (FRC) is a composite material consisting of cement based matrix with an ordered distribution of fibre which can be steel, nylon, polyethylene etc. The self compacting property of the concrete helps in fresh state of concrete and properties in hardened state is enhanced by fibre. In the project hybrid banana and sisal fibre is used.
