Abstract

Impact loadings essentially differ from static loadings due to a huge amount of the force applied to milliseconds under these loadings. Energy absorption of composites is proper criteria to examine the function against impact loading. Energy absorbers are widely used in the industry. At the same time, due to their unique properties, the use of strong self-compacting composites has been considered by the researchers. High tensile, compressive, and flexural strengths have made these concrete composites more eminent. In a comprehensive experimental work, using four basic mix designs, 64 rectangular composite panels were made with 100 mm2 of area and 30, 45, 60, and 75 mm thickness and tested by impact loading. Compressive, tensile, and flexural strength tests were performed on all the four max designs. Steel fibers with percentages of 0, 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75 with 25 m of length were used to make the concrete composites. A hammer with 180 kg weight and 7500 J power was used as the impact loading with drop hammer test machine (DH-TM). The specimens were dynamically loaded by drop test from a 60 cm height. The use of steel fibers and expanded sheets in combination with each other significantly increases the energy absorption. Moreover, the initial peak force increases, while crushing length and deformation of the specimens reduce.
