ABSTRACT
During the past years, we have seen many types of research on concrete by
suitably replacing with many materials to reduce the economy and pollution. The
replacement was done with a substance which is pozzolanic, and these substances
mostly come from waste materials such as sugarcane bagasse ash, rice husk ash and
many other such materials. In this study, we have taken the replacement material
GGBS and Silica fume and the addition of polypropylene fibre, steel and glass fibre.
Key words: Hybrid fibres, polypropylene fibre, steel fibre, glass fibre, GGBS, Silica
Fume, Ternary blend.

1. INTRODUCTION
The pozzolanic materials, which are extensively used to replace the concrete, is because of its
properties, it enhances the concrete which reduces the cost [2]. Ground granulated blast
furnace slag used in concrete at various replacements i.e., 0% to 60% which enhances the
overall mechanical properties and durable properties of concretes [3]. The mechanical
properties like strength and effectiveness were found to be a mixture of effectiveness factor,
depending upon the replacement level of other cementitious materials like sugarcane bagasse
ash, fly ash (class-C & class-F) Fig.1 and micro silica reported as earlier. This process makes
it easy to design a GGBS concretes to the desired strength of any given percentage
replacement of binder [2]
