The development of non-proprietary Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) is one way to reduce the initial cost construction. However, workability a major issue for which such mixtures are not practical in field conditions. Ultra-high performance cannot be achieved conditions if concrete placed, finished, and compacted properly during placement. In this research, six UHPC were developed (three ...

High performance concrete (HPC) bridge decks are prone to premature cracking if movement is restrained. Internal curing (IC) can reduce shrinkage cracking in concrete structures, thus improving their performance and service life. However, there is very limited information available in the literature on the possible extension of service life due to internal curing. This paper addresses this ques...
