The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of binder systems containing different levels of silica fume and polypropylene fibre on properties of concrete. In this programme test specimens of Cubes of size 100 mm x 100 mm x 100 mm, beam with 6000 mm x 100 mm x 100 mm will prepared using the standard moulds. The samples are cast using the two different combinations as control concrete, with silica fume and polypropylene fibre. A total of 96 specimens will cast for testing the properties such as compressive strength & 48 specimens will cast for testing the properties such as tensile strength and 48 specimens will cast for testing the properties such as flexural strength. Different percentages of silica fume and polypropylene fibre with constant water cement ratio are casted. The concrete mixes are 0%, 6%, 10%, 15% Silica fume with partial replacement of cement and 0%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.5% of polypropylene fibre in addition. Cubes were kept in water tank for curing up to 7 and 28 days and beams along with some cubes for tensile test kept in water tank for curing for 28days. The results were compared with the varying percentage of silica fume and polypropylene fibre.
