description Iron tailing porous concrete (ITPC) is a new foamed concrete material that using iron ore tailing powder to partially replace the cement. Previous investigations on ITPC primarily focused on its mechanical properties under static loads or low strain rate conditions, leaving a significant gap in its impact resistance performance at high strain rates. This study employed the split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) to test ITPC specimens under impact loading with strain rate around 120 s−1. Density, water-binder (W/B) ratio, iron tailing powder content, polypropylene fiber length and content were taken as key design variables to prepare the ITPC specimens with different mix ratios and study their effects on the dynamic material properties of ITPC. Specifically, the failure modes, stress-strain relations, elastic moduli, compressive strengths and energy dissipation densities of the ITPC specimens with various design variables were recorded and compared. The test results indicate that the material density, fiber length and content have strong influences on the impact failure modes of ITPC. The elastic modulus, compressive strength and energy dissipation density of ITPC exhibit exponential growth with the material density. These parameters, however, show an initial growth followed by a decrease with the rising W/B ratio, fiber length and fiber content, and they reach the peak values at around 0.70, 9 mm and 2.0%, respectively. Moreover, the iron tailing powder content of 25% is recommended for ITPC for maintaining good impact resistance.
