Abstract

The impact resistance of steel fiber reinforced lightweight aggregate concrete was presented in a drop weight test. In this test, 5 groups of disc specimens with different steel fiber volumes including 0.0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5% and 2.0% were tested. The experimental results indicated that the impact resistance of lightweight aggregate concrete is improved with the increase in fiber volume. As the variation in experimental results, a statistical evaluation was performed to study the influence of impact resistance of steel fiber reinforced lightweight aggregate concrete with different steel fiber volumes. Further more, the impact resistance was simulated with probability distribution by Log-normal method. And the goodnees-of-fit tests indicate that the Log-normal method has good fitness to the impact resistance of steel fiber reinforced lightweight aggregate concrete.
