Abstract :
Slurry Infiltrated Fibrous Concrete (SIFCON) is a new construction fibrous concrete material of high strength and high-performance concrete. SIFCON consists of volume of fibrous content as 5% to 25%. The fibre network is infiltrated by liquid-based slurry. It is not having Coarse aggregate only have cement, sand and cementitious materials. In this Experimental study the strength properties of SIFCON is investigated. SIFCON is produced with Mortar ratio of 1:1.5 and 2.5%,5%, 7.5% of volume of Steel fibers were used. Here hooked end Stainless steel were used with an aspect ratio of 50 then 20% Glass powder is replaced with weight of Cement. The strength characteristics like Compression test, Spilt Tensile strength and Flexural strength test were evaluated and the results obtained from these tests were compared with M30 Concrete
