This study is Focused to improve the strength and durability of green concrete. For this project attemptmade for the Study was to replace the cement by marble powder (0%, 5%, 10%, 15% & 20%) and banana fiber (0%,0.25% & 0.5%) for M30 grade of concrete. Tests were conducted for workability of fresh concrete (Slump test) andstrength of hardened concrete (Compressive strength, Split tensile strength and Flexural Strength) for 28 days. Comparethe parameter of green Concrete with normal concrete. Also compare the cost of green concrete with normal concrete.Based on present study, definite conclusions have been arrived and suggestions for further works have also been given.In this Experiment study concluded that the use of 10% marble powder and 0.25% Banana Fiber as partial replacementof cement (Compressive & flexural strength) in concrete and 15% marble powder & 0.5% banana fiber in split tensilestrength.
