Summary
Research on the impact resistance of plain concrete and fibre reinforced concrete composites has recently become more significant. The issue of extreme loading situations concerns all types of structures, such as buildings or transport infrastructure, so the research of concrete impact resistance has a wide-range of applications. This paper presents the outcomes of an experimental programme focused on the performance of fibre reinforced concrete slabs subjected to impact loading. Deceleration of the impacting burden was measured. Also crack patterns of the damaged specimens were observed and analysed.
