The experimental study involves volume fraction of 0.5 %, 1.0 % and 1.5 %. The inclusion of steel fibres mainly increases the tensile strength of the concrete. As a comparison, plain concrete samples have been cast and tested. The fresh mixed concrete samples of plain concrete and SFRC mixture were tested with slump test to investigate the workability. Meanwhile, the hardened concrete samples were tested under compressive strength test, tensile splitting test and flexural strength test to observe the mechanical properties. The concrete mixes were designed in accordance with the D.O.E (Department of Environment) method of concrete mix design for C25. The water-cement ratio was kept at 0.50 and admixture was used to enhance the workability of concrete mixture throughout experimental work. The significant increase in compressive strength, tensile splitting strength and flexural strength is observed with the addition of hooked end steel fibres in plain concrete. The mechanical properties of hooked end SFRC achieve the maximum strength at 1.5 % of volume fraction in 28 days for 37.77 MPa, 5.95 MPa and 6.66 MPa on compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and flexural strength accordingly. However, the workability is decreasing with the addition of fibre content in plain concrete (PC) from 30 mm to 11 mm drop in HFRC3 mixture zulaihi UTM 97 p.
