NS was added by 0, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4 and 4.5% by weight as a partial addition to concrete and BF has used as volume substitution by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6%. In our present investigation, banana fibres having 40mm length were used. Different combinations of NS and BS used to evaluate the compressive strength, pulse velocity and dynamic young’s modulus of elasticity. Nano-Silica, because of its small particle size, can modify the properties by altering the micro-structure of the concrete. A notable improvement is being noticed in the strength properties of concrete when NS is used by virtue of its high pozzolanic activity confirming the evolution of higher amount of C S H gel in the existence of nano-particles. The addition of NS to the concrete will –– improve the properties strength as well as durability to a great extent. Through applying banana fibers to the concrete, on the other side, eventually in the reduction of permeability and enhanced crack resistance Keyword head: Banana fiber, Compressive strength, Crack resistance, Durability, Nano-Silica, Split tensile strength
