A composite can be termed as hybrid, if two or more types of fibers are rationally combined in a common matrix to produce a composite that derives benefits from each of the individual fibers. The aim is to study the mechanical properties i.e. split-tensile strength and compressive strength on hybrid effect between steel fiber (SF) and chopped carbon fiber (CF). The test on Hybrid Fiber Reinforced Concrete (HFRC) is to be explored at steel fiber volume fraction 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and carbon fiber 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3% by the volume of cement with reinforcement and without reinforcement. For this study, 60 cubes of 150mm, 60 cylinders of 150mm diameter and 300mm height of different combination of SF and CF will be casted of M25 grade of concrete. After testing, effect of different combination and the optimized composition will be concluded. The testing results shows that the optimum of hybrid combination 0.3% CF and 1% SF gives the optimised response in terms of Split-Tensile Strength while hybrid combination of 0.3% CF and 1.5% SF gives the optimised response in terms of Compressive Strength.
