In this paper, the impact resistance of Reactive Powder Concrete and Steel Fiber Reinforced Reactive Powder Concrete has been studied by using the repeated drop-weight impact test, recommended by ACI Committee 544. The results have been analyzed using statistical methods. <br />Results show that despite the very high compressive strength of Reactive Powder Concrete; its impact resistance is very low. The impact resistance of Reactive Powder Concrete is substantially increased by application of steel fibers. Kolmogorov–Smirnov test indicated that despite large variability of the results, impact resistance of Reactive Powder Concrete and Steel Fiber Reinforced Reactive Powder Concrete obtained from the repeated drop weight test had the normal distribution.
