Abstract
The construction field developed Slurry Infiltrated Fiber Concrete (SIFCON) to improve mechanical properties considerably. The durability and ductility of this unique kind of concrete have significantly improved as well, and it has a higher energy absorption capacity. SIFCON differs from other fiber-reinforced concretes because it is produced in a different process, and finally, it contains a significant quantity of fiber, up to 20% or even more. In recent years, several research studies have been conducted on SIFCON, mainly focusing on the performance under impact and blast loading. Although this type of concrete is currently being utilized for significant structures, such as energy plants and military buildings, little is known about how it will respond to blast loads. The aim of this study is to analyze the research findings on enhancing the characteristics and toughness of SIFCON during impact and explosion situations. The review provides essential details about SIFCON that specialists in this field would need to know.
