  • Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) was a concrete innovation that can compacted itself. SCC placement and casting processes do not require compaction as in conventional concrete. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of coconut fiber and polypropylene content variation on SCC characteristics, compressive strength and flexural strength of SCC. The study used four different fiber content with 0%, 0.2%, 0.3% and 0.4% variations on the weight of cement. All variations using water cement ratio or w / c of 0.3 and superplasticizers 1500 - 2000 ml per 100 kg of cement. The results showed there is the decreases of workability on SCC as fiber content increases. The addition of fiber composition leads to an increase in compressive strength and flexural strength. The maximum compressive strength on SCC with coconut fiber reinforcement was 55.01 MPa in the 0.3% fiber variation and flexural strength of 7.81 MPa in 0.4% fiber variation. The maximum compressive strength on SCC with polypropylene fiber reinforcement is 58.04 MPa in 0.3% fiber variation and flexural strength of 8.30 MPa in 0.4% fiber variation. In this study there was a correlation coefficient indicated that the compressive strength and flexural strength are related to each other.
