Like other fields of technology, civil engineering too has moved over from conventional and dictatorialapproach of designing. New and advanced tailor made ingredients are being added to the conventional mix and theirconsequent effects on the finished product are being analysed. Albeit, strength properties of ingredients is more of a vision ofcivil engineers but at the same time eco-friendly approach of the ingredients is also probed. For the same purpose, industrialdisposals like silica fume (SF) by (6, 9 & 12%) & coal bottom ash (CBA) by (5, 10 & 15%) were used as substituents of twoprimary ingredients of concrete viz. cement and Fine aggregate. To accomplish the goal of HPC, alkali resistant glass fibrewith (0.4, 0.8 & 1.2%) by concrete weight was also engrossed into the concrete. Chemical additive super-plasticizer by 0.4%of the weight of cementitious material was also engrossed to the concrete mix. The impact of these constituents on concretecompressive strength was checked by the suitable test. The behaviour of glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) undercompressive loads was correlated with that of traditional mix.
