Concrete is a popular building material because of its great compressive strength, durability, and availability of sub-components. The strain at fracture and tensile strength of normal concrete are extremely poor. Simple concrete usually contains multiple micro-cracks and fails due to a lack of tensile strength under continuous loading conditions. Concrete is strengthened with fibres to increase tensile and flexure strength. Fibre-reinforced concrete’s primary function is to monitor cracking and thus provide some post-cracking ductility. The aim is to compare the performance of fibres on the mechanical properties of M 30  grade concrete and to find the optimal fibre concentration. Fibres are added by 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2% in concrete. Ternary blended concrete was considered in the study. Cement is partially replaced by GGBS with 30% and Dolomite powder 10% respectively. The study took in to account the replacement to reduce the CO 2  emission while also conserving natural resources. Total 8 mixes are prepared with fibre proportions. Different concrete specimens such as cubes, cylinders and beams are prepared with different proportions of fibres. Prepared concrete specimens were tested at 3, 7&amp; 28days. The inclusion of fibres resulted in significant improvements in compression, flexure, and split tensile strength in experimental test results.
