Concrete is an innovative material most widely used construction material. It has vital advantages, such as low cost, general availability and wide usage. But this affects environment. Concrete made with Portland cement with certain characteristics it is relatively strong in compression and but weak in tension. Tension weakness can be overcome by the use of conventional reinforcement and to some extent by the inclusion of the sufficient volume of certain fibers. The aim of this work is to find a non conventional concrete system and it should easily available, accessible, strength enough and also cheap. Testing of different combination for fiber were found to be strength effective and environmental friendly
