Polypropylene Fibre (PF) as reinforcement has contributed to the intensity of Foamed Concrete (FC) slab when subjected to impact loading. The presence of PF in the admixture reduces the micro-porosity that generates the micro-crack of the slab. However, the fibrillation of PF in the admixture enhances the bonding mechanism system between PF and the FC matrix. The impact test conducted uses an instrumented drop-weight impact tower. Results show that FC without PF produces a distinct radial crack and clear fragments within the crater field unlike FC with PF. However, both slab materials did not generate spalling nor scabbing upon impact and the influence of porosity produces only local damage due to the mechanism of brittle crushing effect of porous walls. In this study, the energy absorption between FC with and without PF was investigated and from observation produces only minor differences. Results also verify that FC with PF did not loss its ability to absorb energy upon impact.
