Fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) is a new structural material which is gaining increasing importance. Addition of fiber reinforcement in discrete form improves many engineering properties of concrete. The objective of this research investigation was to study the flexure and spilt tensile strength behavior of steel fibre reinforced concrete using Round straight fibres with aspect ratio of 75 Specimens were cast without fibres and with fibres of 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2 %. split tensile tests and Flexural Strength were conducted on cylinder and beam specimens respectively
