    Abstract
    The experimental study conducted to evaluate the material characteristics of ternary blended concrete containing Nano-Silica and Zeolite along with steel fibre to act as micro-reinforcement has been presented in this paper. Nano-Silica and Zeolite were included in different dosages and the optimum combination of the above two materials (Nano-Silica -1%and Zeolite-10%) has been obtained through trials from the viewpoint of workability and strength. Steel fibres have been added in varying volume fractions of 0.5,1.0 &1.5%. Tests have been conducted on cubes, cylinders and prism specimens to assess the impact of steel fibres on various physical properties of the ternary blended concrete. The test results clearly show that the addition of steel fibres significantly influences the material characteristics of the ternary blended concrete which includes compressive strength, indirect tensile strength, flexural strength, and elasticity modulus.
