Investigation of torsional behavior and capacity of reactive powder concrete (RPC) of hollow T-beam
A hollow reinforced concrete T-beams were investigated under the effect of pure tension experimentally, which are made of reactive powder concrete (RPC). This concrete was produced with adding steel fiber and silica fume in different dosages. The present

Providing a framework for optimizing a mixing design of reactive powder concrete (RPC) [PDF]
Abstract Suitable distribution of particles and the presence of hydration lead to the improved compressive performance and optimum (even reduced) cost in the production of reactive powder concrete (RPC). This study was conducted to obtain a better understanding of RPC and analyze the behavior of modified RPC (MRPC) using the ...

Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC)
The term Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC) has been used to describe a fibre reinforced , superplasticized, silica fume-cement mixture with very low water-cement ratio, characterized by the presence of very fine aggregates instead of ordinary aggregate. Fibres are incorporated in RPC in order to enhance the fracture properties of the composite material ...

Influence of Fiber Shape and Volume Content on the Performance of Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC) [PDF]
This research studied the influence of three types of open (short-straight, long-straight, semicircular) and three different shapes of closed steel fibers (triangular, rectangular, circular) with different fiber contents by volume (0, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%) on the working and mechanical performance of reactive powder concrete (RPC).

Effect of Glass Powder on Physical and Mechanical Properties of Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC) [PDF]
Glass waste is often dumped directly into the ground or rivers in large quantities, causing environmental pollution. To overcome this problem, glass waste can be processed into powder as a mixture in concrete. This research partially uses glass powder to replace silica fume in reactive powder concrete.
