Abstract: Fibre reinforced concrete can offer an opportune, practical and cheap to run method for overcome micro-cracks and a like type of deficiency.
The concrete is weak in stress hence some actions must be adopted to beat this deficit. Human hair is strapping in tension; hence it can be used as a fibre
reinforcement material. Hair Fibre (HF) an every second non-degradable matter is available in wealth and at a very not expensive cost. It also creates
ecological problem for its decompositions. Present studies has been undertaken to study the outcome of human hair on plain cement concrete on the basis
of its tensile and furious control to economize concrete and to reduce environmental problems. Experiments were conducted on concrete with various
percentages of human hair fibre i.e. 0.25% by weight of concrete.

Abstract: Due to increase in Population and Industrialization, the amount of waste generation is increasing at an alarming rate. The demand of
coarse aggregate, fine aggregate and cement used on concrete is increasing worldwide every year due to rapid infrastructural growth and urban
development. Nowadays there is acute shortage of natural aggregates leading to serious scarcity problems. This thesis reports the use of combination of
waste materials such as Fly ash, Boiler feed waste and Recycled coarse aggregate for replacements of Cement, Fine aggregate and coarse aggregate
respectively in concrete in different proportions. The replacement percentage of waste materials in concrete has been fixed from the results of Design of
Experiments.
