Popis: Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) is a standout amongst “the most progressive advancements” in developing the industry. This solid can stream and fill the most confined spots of the structural work without vibration. The Self-Consolidating Concrete is a superior solid which is progressively predict the strength. To improve the quality of SCC, polypropylene is included. Polypropylene Fiber is moderately another developing material, which is utilized in SCC to expand the flexural and elasticity of cement. For proper work capacity, Super Plasticizer (SP) and Viscosity Modifying Agent (VMA) are added to lessen isolation of the total. Self-Compacting Concrete has indistinguishable quality, with the utilization of VMA and Super Plasticizer. The expense of SCC is a lot higher than the Conventional Concrete [1] . The expense of materials for SCC is most prominent around 10–15%, when contrasted with materials for conventional Concrete. Be that as it may, it is affordable like, reserve funds in the rate of work, rate of flow and rate to fix work and so forth. In this examination 0.3%, 0.6%, 0.9% and 1.2% of polypropylene fiber by the heaviness of bond are included cement to upgrade the assets of SCC. Polypropylene fiber with a fiber length of 6–12 mm breadth of 14 µm and an angle proportion of 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2 is utilized. In this test work, M20 evaluation of cement is taken to decide the Flexural quality, split rigidity of SCC with the ideal level of Super plasticizer, polypropylene fiber and VMA.
