This study investigates the mechanical and durability properties of basalt fibre-reinforced concrete (BFRC). For this purpose, the compressive strength, flexural strength, split tensile strength and bond strength test were conducted on BFRC with 0, 1, 2, and 3% of fibre by weight of cement. In addition, the performance of BFRC was evaluated through the durability studies, namely Abrasion, Rapid Chloride Permeability test and Acid resistance test. The results showed that there is a significant effect of basalt fibre on flexure, split tensile and bond strength. The durability studies revealed that the performance of BFRC was improved significantly than the conventional concrete.
