Study of SPRC Impact Resistance Based on the Weibull Distribution and the Response Surface Method.

Silica-fume-polyvinyl-alcohol-fiber-reinforced concrete (SPRC) is a green and environmentally friendly composite material incorporating silica fume and polyvinyl alcohol fiber into concrete. To study the impact resistance of SPRC, compressive-strength and drop hammer impact tests were conducted on SPRC with different silica-fume and polyvinyl-alcohol-fiber contents. The mechanical and impact resistance properties of the SPRC were comprehensively analyzed in terms of the compressive strength, ductility ratio and impact-energy-dissipation variation.
