This paper provides the result of an investigation to use of crushed brick as aggregates which was collected from the demolition waste of buildings from different sites then crushed with (maximum size 10 mm) in producing modified reactive concrete MRPC, which was presented by replacement the cementation binder (cement +silica fume) of original reactive powder concrete by 25% of crushed brick aggregates. The objective of this work is to study the effect of different type of steel fibers added in ratio 1% on the flowability and mechanical properties of reactive powder concrete and modified reactive powder concrete, which was micro steel fiber and hooked end steel fiber. The mechanical properties are examined by the tests of compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength. The results showed that the compressive strength at 28 days of ORPC was 126.46 MPa, 120 MPa for the two types of steel fibers micro, hooked respectively. For the mix MRPC with micro, hooked the compressive strength at 28 days decreased by 1.53% and 1.15%, compared with those of the RPC made with micro, hooked steel fibers. And observed from the experimental results that two mixtures (RPC and MRPC) with micro steel fiber gave higher mechanical properties compared with the hook end.
