The reports of the past investigations have vividly expressed the significance of steel fibers and its contributions in enhancing the performance of concrete. The paper aims at investigating the most efficient and potential steel fiber among all four i.e. hooked, crimped, twisted and straight steel fibers that contributes in boosting the performance and quality of concrete after extensive examinations. Several concrete mixes were examined, incorporated with fly ash (FA) and metakaoline (MK) in various proportions FA35%+MK4.5%,FA40%+MK9%,FA45%+MK13.5%,FA50%+MK18% and each composition is reinforced with four types of steel fibers in varying fractions of 0%, 0.5%, 1% and 1.5% to examine the potential of steel fibers in enhancing the properties of concrete for 28 days and 56 days curing period. After exclusive experimentations, It was finally confirmed that hooked steel fibers composite concrete mixes contributed the best performance among all other types of steel fibers whereas straight steel fibers showed a minimal performance compared to other steel fibers.
