Fiber-reinforced composite materials have emerged as essential solutions for addressing the durability challenges of traditional reinforced concrete, owing to their lightweight nature, high strength, ease of construction, superior tensile capacity, robust corrosion resistance, and excellent electromagnetic insulation properties. This paper delves into the influence of loading rate and fiber bar type on the mechanical characteristics of concrete one-way plates through impact experiments on such plates fitted with glass/basalt fiber bars at varying drop weight heights. The test results reveal a direct correlation between increasing loading rates and escalating damage in fiber-reinforced concrete one-way plates, reflected in the progressive rise in peak deflection and residual displacement at the mid-span of the specimens. Notably, when subjected to higher impact loads, glass fiber-reinforced concrete specimens exhibit amplified deformation and intricate crack formations, consequently diminishing the overall deformation resistance of the plate. Furthermore, glass/basalt fiber-reinforced composites demonstrate notable vibration damping qualities, characterized by substantial residual displacement, minimal rebound, and rapid decay following vibration stimulation. Overall, glass fiber-reinforced one-way plates display marginally superior impact resistance compared to their basalt fiber-reinforced counterparts.

With the growing use of steel-fiber-reinforced-concrete (SFRC) beams in environmentally friendly and rapid construction, it is essential to assess their impact performance. These beams may encounter unexpected impact loadings from accidents or terrorist attacks during service life. This study explored the impact of steel fiber content and drop hammer height on the impact load testing of corrosion-treated SFRC beams. Experiments were conducted with varying steel fiber contents (0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, and 1.0%), and drop hammer height (1 m, 2 m, and 3 m). The corrosion test demonstrates that SFRC beams supplemented with steel fibers showcase a diminished surface rust spot area in comparison to those lacking fibers. This improvement is ascribed to the bonding between fibers and the concrete matrix, along with their current-sharing properties. SFRC beams, subjected to impact testing, exhibit concrete crushing at the top without spalling, showcasing improved impact resistance due to increased fiber content, which reduces crack formation. Additionally, different fiber contents yield varied responses to impact loads, with higher fiber content notably enhancing overall beam performance and energy dissipation capacity. Energy dissipation analysis shows a moderate increase with higher fiber contents, and impulse impact force generally rises with fiber content, indicating improved impact resistance.
