Concrete paver blocks in road pavement are used in the parking, hill road construction for soil strength lower areas. As per Indian standard, interlocking concrete paver blocks are used with M 35 grade concrete. This paper deals combination of sansevieria cylindrica fiber with normal concrete for making of new paver block. Here fibers are added in the proportions of 0.25% to 1.75% in the volume of cement mortar. The compressive strength was determined 28 days. The compressive strength of 0.75% sansevieria cylindrica fiber mix having more strength. While increasing percentage of fiber value the concrete strength is reduced.
