Abstract

The utilization of steel fiber reinforcement concrete (SFRC) in practical applications is gained considerable attention owing to its acceptable strength (Nili & Afroughsabet, 2010; El-Dieb, 2009) and durability. Taking to account, SFRC in constructions may inevitably subjected to short duration dynamic loading, the impact resistance of SFRC which cured under different curing conditions must be well documented. To evaluate the resistance of SFRC under impact loadings, a variety of test procedures have been suggested (ACI Committee 544, 1996) . In this study, the drop-weight test as recommended by ACI committee 544 (ACI Committee 544, 1996) were utilized.
