Abstract The current systematic study investigates properties of hybrid fiber reinforced self compacting concrete (HyFRSCC) with crimped steel fibers (CSF) and polypropylene fibers (PPF) along with class F fly ash (FA) and colloidal nano silica (CNS). Optimization of HyFRC mix is conducted using L16 Taguchi Orthogonal Array where additive has four levels. Combination of 10% FA, 0.4% CNS, 1.25% CSF and 0.167% PPF found to be optimal recommendation. Multiple linear regression analysis predicts equations of tensile strength as the function of cylinder compressive strength, for combination of FA, CNS, CSF and PPF. A good correlation between tested and predicted values is obtained.
