Impact resistance of laterally confined fibre reinforced concrete plates
Abstract The effect of both biaxial and uniaxial lateral confinement on fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) plates under transverse impact loading was investigated. It was found that confinement had a major effect on the failure patterns as well as on the mechanical properties of both plain and fibre reinforced concretes. With different types and degrees of confinement, the failure changed from a flexural mode to a punching shear mode or a combined flexural-shear mode. With confinement, the apparent strength of concrete increased by up to two or three times and the inertial load decreased to a small enough fraction of the measured impact load that it could be ignored in the analysis. The ability of the FRC to absorb energy also increased with increasing confinement.
