Concrete is the central pile for the infrastructure that maintains civilisation and human life. The concrete industry faces many challenges, including improving mechanical properties, eco-friendliness, and durability. In this context, the present study focuses on evaluating and modelling themechanical properties of engineered concrete, namely slurry-infiltrated fibrous concrete (SIFCON). The main experiments will be devoted to measuring and modelling the failures of slabs made from SIFCON under two loading systems, namely static and impact loading systems. The model was developed using a non-linear finite element analysis. The experiments considered the influence of the geometry of the reinforcement steel fibres (hook-end fibres, microfibres, and combined hook-end and microfibres), sizes of fibres, and slab dimensions. The outcomes of this investigation showed that increasing the slab's thickness enhances the load-bearing capacity of the SIFCON slab, and the microfibres and combined hook-end and microfibres improved the load-bearing capacity of the slab compared to the hook-end fibre. Generally, it was noticed that the outcomes of the experiments agreed with the modelling outcomes. Nevertheless, it was noticed that experimentally measured axial deformation was more significant than the predicted axial deformation. In summary, the difference between experimental and modelling outcomes was 1.1-10.2%, with a standard deviation of 0.0264. Based on the excellent ability of SIFCON to resist impacts and dynamic loads, it is recommended to be used in pavements, military structures, nuclear reactor walls, and in areas subjected to high bending moments, such as corner connections subjected to opening bending moments.
