Effect of Glass Powder on Physical and Mechanical Properties of Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC)
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.

Design of UHPC prestressed girders for shear
Abstract Breakthrough technology of ultra‐high‐performance concrete (UHPC) introduced in the 1990s exhibits several exceptional mechanical properties that are advantageous in elements of bridge applications. Extensive research has aimed to industrialize UHPC and develop design models. This paper investigates several design models for shear, including a

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

Reactive powder concrete (RPC) can provide enhanced mechanical properties and durability compared to conventional concrete. RPC has been developed in this study using locally available materials. Six types of steel fibers and three curing regimens were considered to examine their effect on the mechanical properties of RPC.
