This report compiled for an experimental regarding High-Performance Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete of corbel or known as HPSFRC Corbel. The result of several testing was conducted in understanding behaviour of steel fiber that act as main material in concrete corbel. The main test variables were shear span-to depth ratio and the provision of secondary reinforcement. A total of 4 corbel were tested by 3 Point Bending Test resulting higher result of maximum load and ductility towards corbel with secondary reinforcement and shear span to depth ratio of 0.75. Thus, the presence of secondary reinforcement and shear span to depth ratio influence the shear strength of corbel. Generally, all corbel failed in a stable and ductile manner.
