The article deals with the application of combined reinforcement of fi-ne-grained concrete with steel wave and polypropylene fibers. High-density packaging of the mixture components was used to improve the strength and deformation characteristics. In order to reduce the cost of fibre concrete, composite binders were developed. Rational selection of filler and the use of a steel wave fiber gave the opportunity to get the fibre concrete with tensile compressive strength – 84.8 MPa, the tensile strength in bending – 19.8 MPa on technogenic sands of the Kursk Magnetic Anomaly. With combined reinforcement by steel and polypropylene fiber on technogenic sands of the Kursk magnetic anomaly fibre concrete with a tensile compressive strength – 82.8 MPa, in bending – 19.1 MPa was developed. With the same strength charac-teristics the developed mixture of fibre concrete based on combined re-inforcement due to reducing the amount of steel fiber at cost is lower by 25% compared to the composition on steel fiber and the same com-posite binder.
