To enhance the impact resistance of high-performance concrete (HPC), a novel efficient solution was adopted by incorporating basalt fibers (BF) and polypropylene fibers (PF) as reinforcement materials in this work. To this end, the effects of single BF (BHC) and PF (PHC) as well as their combinations (BPHPC) on the impact energy consumption, ductility ratio, and toughness factor were explored through drop weight impact test of concrete considering fiber volume contents (0.1%, 0.15%, 0.2%) to evaluate the impact resistance of the concrete. The Weibull distribution function model is used to fit the drop weight impact test results and predict the probability of failure. Moreover, the fracture-resistance enhancement mechanism of fiber is analyzed at a microscopic level. Test results showed that the number of impacts resisted by the HPC can follow well the two-parameter Weibull distribution. Compared with the single BF and single PF, the combination of 0.15% BF and 0.1% PF yields favorable impact resistance, thus exhibiting a positive hybrid effect.
