In the production of palm oil various waste materials such as empty fruit bunches, palm kernel shells, palm leaves and fibers are produced. These wastes are used as fuel in palm oil industry in palm oil mill boilers. The combustion of these above by products produces ash. This palm oil fuel ash has the potential to be used as a partial replacement for cement as it has the pozzolanic properties, leading to reduction in the cost of construction, and a convenient means of disposal of wastes. In this experimental study the palm oil fuel ash is obtained by palm oil mill named Kalpataru near Harihar. The study deals with the properties of composite fiber reinforced concrete containing palm oil fuel ash as partial replacement of cement, and fibers (sisal and glass fibers) in different proportions. The palm oil fuel ash is used in the percentage of 0%, 10%, 20 % & 30%, for concrete having sisal fibers of various proportion i.e. 0%, 0.5 %, 1 %, 1.5 %, and glass fibers of 0 %, 0.1 %, 0.2 %, and 0.3% are used for mix. The study is carried to find out the compressive strength, split tensile, flexural strengths at the period of 7 and 28 days
