The spontaneous urbanisation has brought about boom in call for of land, solid for fast and green buildings over it. Hence it's far critical to bolster low bearing potential regions for financial creation practices.To conquer this impediment numerous laboratory tests and research are carried out, comparing the reinforceing impact of geogrid for enhancing bearing potential of soil. This paper objectives to look at the impact of artificial fibrein improving the bearing potential. Krishna river sand is used at exceptional relative density of compaction and handiest one kind of artificial fibre have been used for the tests. The intensity of the muse become various from 0 to B (B=width of foundation). The increase with inside the bearing potential with the availability of synthetic fibre as reinforcement is observed.
