Concrete is one of the most widely recognized development material for the most part delivered by utilizing locally accessible ingredients. The present trend in concrete technology is towards increasing the strength and durability of concrete to meet the demands of the modern construction. Enhance the physical and mechanical properties of concrete are a prospective area of research because concrete has a lot to offer as a construction material as it can be used to generate modern new-build properties. Fiber reinforced concrete is one among those advancements which offers economical, practical and convenient method for overcoming the deficiency of concrete such as micro cracks, low tensile strength and similar type of deficiencies. Since the concrete is weak in tension, fiber helps to overcome this deficiency utilizing the waste material in concrete. The addition of fibers into concrete can dramatically increase the strength of concrete. This research aims to check the effect of glass fiber & jute fiber on the fresh, physical and mechanical properties of concrete.
