Ultra-high Performance Concrete as a Sustainable Structural Composite

Abstract The phenomenal strides in the modifications and use of supplementary cementitious materials conjunction with superplasticizers discrete fiber distributions concrete made it possible to arrive at structural material termed as “ultra-high performance concretes” (UHPC) or its extension reinforced (UHPFRC). Its development heralded a new era, opening vistas configurations forms that could be serious contender steel constructions. Primarily, chemistry physics constituents mixture design philosophy have not changed much, though intricacies are often neglected were effectively corrected from time time. ranging conventional nanoparticles exhibit superior pozzolanic activity along microfibers resulted strengths well beyond 200 MPa. This opens up several avenues high strength durability. However, this isn’t stipulation replacing present-day all structures UHPC, but key is modulate suit needs particular application for ensuring sustainability consonance capabilities UHPC. paper attempts look such options assure sustainable construction alternates.
