Abstract: 

This study addresses the strength behaviour of polypropylene fibre reinforced fly ash concrete (PFRFAC). The variables of study included the polypropylene fibre content (0.25%, 0.3%, 0.35%, 0.40%, 0.45% and 0.50%) and 10% of Fly ash as cement replacement are incorporated in all the concrete mix proportions considered in this study. The test results indicate that the mechanical properties of concrete increases with 0.40% polypropylene fibre with 10% fly ash content
