Steel fibre and welded wire mesh could perform effectively with concrete. Usually, increasing the ductile properties by adding steel is the finest option. The effect of steel fibre and welded mesh on concrete is still unknown. Firstly, the fracture study was conducted with Edge Notched Disc Bend (ENDB) specimen of mode-I category. Mode-I (opening) fracture testing could determine the fracture toughness of the concrete model. Secondly, the impact resistance of nine 600 × 600 × 65 mm thin slab was cast and tested. A steel ball with a drop weight of 3.8 kg is used to determine the unreinforced concrete slab’s impact strength. The thin concrete slab with added steel fibres on concrete follows 0.5, 1 and 1.5%, with and without welded mesh embedment. The experimental results showed that the combination of steel fibre and welded mesh on fibre mesh concrete (FMC) shows higher compressive strength, fracture toughness and impact resistance.
