a study had been made for the development of High Performance Concrete using mineral admixtures such as Flyash, Silica-fume and Metakoalin along with steel and Polypropylene fibers. In this connection series of concrete cubes,cylinders and beams. were casted with various mix proportions were tested as per IS 516-1959, IS 5816-1976 for gettingStrength Characteristic of Concrete The compressive strength, strength of the plain concrete specimens without any mineraladmixture & fibers have been compared with that of compressive-strength of composite concrete made up of mineraladmixtures & fibers The addition of fly-ash, silica-fume & Metakoalin influences the overall behavior of this concrete, whilethe post-cracking residual strength is increased by the addition of steel fibers into the mix of 6 sets of concrete specimenswere carried out, the main parameters that are varied are mineral admixtures additions, fiber-volume, water-binder ratioetc. Due to the addition of mineral admixtures & fiber volume into the mix, it gives very good performance & improves thestrength characteristic of concrete.
