What is the difference between Reinforced cement concrete and Fibre Reinforced Concrete?

Rate analysis:
Rate analysis will simply the quantity of cement and sand required for the 1-meter cube of cement sand mortar.
Similarly, we can do rate analysis for concrete as well for different proportions.
Here I am discussing point example of the material required for the 1-meter cube of cement concrete of density 2.3 ton per metre cube and cement sand aggregate ratio is 1:3: 6
Mix proportion ratio is 1:3:6 (here, maximum 20 nominal sizes of aggregates are used.)
The total sum is 1+ 3 + 6=10 Dry volume of 1-metre cube concrete is a 1.54-metre cube.
Hence cement required is a one-tenth part of the 1.54-meter cube which is 0.15-metre cube means to 16 kg means 4.3 bags of 50 kg each.
If you want to find out the sand quantity then it’s 0.46-meter cube means 1.2-ton Aggregate quantity 0.92-metre cube means 1.56 ton of maximum normal size of 20 mm aggregate
I hope so your doubt is clear, thank you.

Fiber reinforced concrete is one in which the steel rebars are replaced with fibrous material pre added into the concrete mix so as to have this fibrous material embedded as reinforcement in the finished concrete. The fibres used vary from steel, plastic, synthetics, polymers, natural fibres and some more.
