Underspanned Bridge Structures in Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC)
نویسنده
چکیده
Adapted structures must be developed so that modern reactive powder concretes (RPC) can be incorporated into new construction projects in an efficient and logical way. The steps of this development, from the analysis of the material characteristics, to the determination of the structural requirements, to the arrival at an appropriate adapted structure are described. An Outlook on the development of the Structural Elements is given.

Simulation of the Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC) Behavior Reinforcing with Resistant Fiber Subjected to Blast Load
In research or experimental works related to blast loads, the amount of explosion material and distance of explosion point are very important. So, in this paper has been attempted to present a parametric study of the reactive powder concrete subjected to blast load. The effect of the different amount of TNT adopted the literature, distance of explosion point from RPC slab and also the location ...
متن کاملBehavior of FRP-Confined Reactive Powder Concrete Columns under Eccentric Loading
Fiber reinforced Polymers (FRP) have widely used for the purposes of enhances strength and ductility of concrete columns. Proper design of such hybrid columns, however, requires a better recognition of the behavior of concrete columns confined with FRP. In this paper, the influence of FRP thickness, concrete compressive strength, and column size on the performance of eccentrically loaded reacti...
متن کاملEffects of Different Water and Super Plasticizer Amount, Pre-Setting and Curing Regimes on the Behavior of Reactive Powder Concrete
Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC) is an ultra high performance concrete which has superior mechanical and physical properties. The RPC is composed of cement and very fine powders such as crushed quartz (100–600 μm) and silica fume with very low water/binder ratio (W/B) (less than 0.20) and Super Plasticizer (SP). The RPC has a very high compressive and tensile strength with better durability prope...
متن کاملComposite Approach to High Strain-Rate Stress-Strain Curve of Reactive Powder Concrete
In this study, we investigate the stress-strain curves of reactive powder concrete (RPC) at high strain rates by using SHPB test, the Burgers’ mechanics model and secant-moduli method. The RPC composites are examined at the age of 10 days containing RPC mortar as the matrix, and three volume concentrations, 1%, 2% and 3%, of steel fiber as the inclusion respectively. Strain rates including 1×10...
متن کاملPrediction of Mechanical Properties of Reactive Powder Concrete by Using Artificial Neural Network and Regression Technique after the Exposure to Fire Flame
An experimental work was carried out to investigate some mechanical properties of Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC) which are particularly required as input data for structural design. These properties include compressive strength, flexural strength, tensile strength and static modulus of elasticity. A combined laboratory and modeling study was undertaken to develop a database of the estimation ab...
