- More about Ultra-High Performance Concrete: Design, Performance, and Application
Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is a cement-based composite material with compressive strength of over 120 MPa, high toughness, and superior durability. It has attracted great interest worldwide due to its advantages, such as lightweight, high-rise, large-span, heavy-load bearing, fast-construction, and highly durable structures. This book covers material selection and mixture design methods, performance, and applications, including a typical new concrete, seawater sea-sand UHPC, for civil and construction engineering.

Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is a cutting-edge cement-based composite material that boasts an impressive compressive strength of over 120 MPa, along with remarkable toughness and exceptional durability. Since its inception in the early 1990s, UHPC has garnered widespread attention globally due to its numerous advantages. This comprehensive book delves into the selection and formulation of materials for developing UHPC, as well as its performance characteristics, encompassing fresh and hardened properties, setting and hardening processes, dimensional stability, static and dynamic properties, durability, long-term properties, and self-healing capabilities. Furthermore, it presents a range of potential applications and case studies, showcasing how UHPC meets the demands of lightweight, high-rise, large-span, heavy-load-bearing, fast-construction, and highly durable structures in civil and construction engineering. Additionally, the book introduces a novel concrete formulation, seawater sea-sand UHPC, which eliminates the use of freshwater and river sand in marine construction. As the first book to comprehensively cover the design, performance, and applications of UHPC, this resource is invaluable for concrete technologists, designers, contractors, and researchers alike.
