With the development of concrete technology, the polypropylene fibers have been extensively used in concrete structures for property and durability enhancement. The polypropylene fibers have significantly low cost compared to steel, the use of macro polypropylene fiber could achieve a similar level of reinforcement in concrete at a half price of using steel. The article focuses on the influence of polypropylene fibres of concrete properities. The aim is to compare the basic material properties of concretes with the same composition but with the addition of polypropylene fibres of different lengths and in different proportions. Polypropylene fibres of 54 mm, 38 mm and 19 mm length were used as dispersed reinforcement.
