But I'll have to agree with VolkNet. I like to keep organized with folders, but if I were to choose it would be: /resource/category/1.html

Anything after the hash sign is called a fragment and is usually used to start the page at an anchor tag with the same name as the fragment.. so I don't think it would work, assuming you're using mod_rewrite to transform the URLs.
I personally like site.com/resource-Category/1 - that way you aren't locked in to extensions and it stays great in search engines.

/resource/category/1.html and resource-Category/1.html looks nice, but there will be alot of problems (internal links, images file location...)
Also there are rumors that some search engines discount the value of web pages at lower directory level.
I'd go with resource-Category-1.html
