Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) is a highly fluid yet stable concrete that can flow consistently under its own weight, pass between bars, and fill in formwork without the need for compaction. Fiber reinforcement can extend the technical benefits of SCC by also providing a crack bridging ability, higher toughness, and long-term durability. The use of polypropylene fibers, however, is known to alter the flow properties of fresh concrete. To maintain a self-consolidating ability, the fiber length and total volume must be controlled, which can restrict the gain in toughness imparted by the fibers. Thus, fibers intended for use in SCC need to be carefully optimized.The study analyzes the impact of polypropylene fibers on SCC performance under fresh conditions, as well as its mechanical properties under hardened conditions. For the mechanical properties of SCC, the study has been conducted as follows: compressive strength with elapsed age, tensile strength, bond strength, all of which were measured after the sample being cured for 28 days.The bonding strengths of reinforcing bars were measured using cubic specimens of SCC. The SCC specimens were cast without applying compaction.A total of 5 SCC mixtures were made with combinations of fibers in varying proportions from 0 to 1.8 kg/m3. All specimens from these five mixtures are cured under two different conditions: (1) in a water tank of \
