This paper presents the fundamental study on the field applicability of new-type steel fiber improved the existing shape. In this study, the theoretical reviews and the laboratory test programs were carried out to evaluate the mechanical characteristic of the new-type of steel fiber. The steel fiber sticking coefficient of new-type steel fiber was estimated from the test results. The laboratory scaled shotcrete rebound tests were also performed to analysis the field applicability of New-type steel fiber shotcrete and the mechanical behaviour of New-type steel fiber shotcrete were compared with that of the existing steel fiber shotcrete. It was found that the strength characteristic of New-type steel fiber shotcrete was increased.
