To investgate the fracture behavior of the steel fiber reinforced concreate, the specimens with different steel fiber contents of 0.0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, were made and notched with differents notch depth ratios of 0.0,0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and the three point bend tests were followed. Test results of 16 different types of above combined specimens were summarized as follows. 1.The load line deflection contents were found to increase 5%, 16%, 19%, respectively, compared to the unnotched specimen with the increased of initial notch depth ratio to 0.2,0.4, 0.6, respectively. 2.The frexural strength were found to decrease 14%, 16%, 21 %, respectively, compared to the unnotched specimen with the increase of initial notch depth ratio to 0.2, 0.4, 0.6,respectively. 3.The stress intensity factors of the steel fiber reinforced concrete were found to increase 1.1 1.5 1.9 times, respectively, compared to the concrete with no steel fiber content with the increase of fiber content to 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, respectively. 4.The influence of the mass of the steel fiber reinforced concrete to the whole fracture energy was found to be minor with 6~8 % contribution. 5.The fracture energy of the steel fiber reinforced concrete, considering the load-deflection curve and concrete mass was found to be approximately 350-380kg m/m$^2$. 6.The regression analysis through the relationship between the compressive(Oc)/tensile (OT) strength and fracture energy(Gf) showed that the fracture energy of the steel fiber reinforced concrete could be predicted as follows. Gf= 19.2662 Oc - 3940.4 Gf= 246.876 OT- 6008.8
