Concrete is the most often utilised material in building. Cementitious material improvement is critical since it is the most versatile material used in building. The two key established drawbacks of ordinary concrete are destructive behaviour combining brittle failure and inadequate tensile strength. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of adding various types of fibres to hollow concrete blocks. Polypropylene, steel, glass, nylon, and coconut fibres were employed in various proportions in the current work. The inquiry program's major goal is to determine the optimal fibre content as well as the impact of fibre addition on the compressive strength of hollow concrete blocks. After that, the compressive strength of the hollow concrete block samples was measured. The hollow concrete block samples were tested for compressive strength after 28 days of curing period and a notable increase in compressive strength is observed for all the percentage addition of fibres when compared with the hollow concrete block without fibres.
