Introducing　research　progress　of　rate-dependent　tests　by　domestic　and　foreign　scholars,　strain-rate　effect　on　dynamic　mechanical　properties　of　concrete　are　reviewed.　Classified　descriptions　of　research　results　on　dynamic　load　tests　of　concrete　at　home　and　abroad　are　provided,　including　uniaxial　compression　tests,　uniaxial　tensile　tests,　and　multi-axis　tests;　strain-rate　effects　on　concrete　strength　and　deformation　properties　in　each　test　are　respectively　discussed;　and　strain-rate　effect　on　concrete　energy　absorption　capability　are　described.
