Abstract: This investigation explains the effect of addition of polypropylene fibers and Nano Silica into concrete. This investigation is divided into two phases. First Phase deals with calculations of Compressive and Split Tensile strength. Here we have done compressive strength tests for calculating the optimum percentage of Nano Silica with variation from0% to 3% of cement which is replaced with cement in concrete. Now polypropylene fiber is added to concrete from 0% to 1.4% of cement and those specimens were tested for compressive and Split Tensile strength and obtained the maximum percentage of fiber at which strengths maximum. In second phase, a modal equation is developed using Multiple Regression Analysis (MRA) for compressive and Split Tensile strength based on experimental results which are found in phase one. By using obtained modal equations we will calculate Predicted strength and their residuals and their graphical representation is shown.
