Researchers first screened steel-fiber geometry and length for concrete impermeability, identifying 50-mm hooked-end and 40-mm crimped fibers as the best performers among those tested, before combining them with nano-silica to assess 28-day mechanical properties and microstructure. The hybrid mixtures performed best at 2% steel fiber and 1% nano-silica among the tested levels, with hooked-end fibers providing the strongest overall tensile and bending performance and microstructural analyses supporting a denser cementitious matrix. 09/07/2026
