Ultra-High-Performance Concrete Crack Propagation Based on Fiber Random Distribution Model
The tensile strength, crack behavior, and strain-hardening properties of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) are mainly affected by the steel fibers distributed in the matrix. In this study, a mesoscopic model of UHPC was established using a numerical

Experimental investigation on UHPC shrinkage of full-scale steel-UHPC composite bridge deck
Three full-scale composite bridge deck segments with various steel-to-UHPC area ratios, as well as free shrinkage specimens, were tested to investigate the restrained shrinkage and cracking behaviors. Based on the measured UHPC strain and temperature, the variations in shrinkage strain were analyzed, and a time-varying analysis theory for calculating ...

The feasibility of using ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) to strengthen RC beams in torsion
To explore the feasibility of using ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) to strengthen reinforced concrete (RC) beams in torsion, pure torsion tests on 9 specimens have been conducted in this study, including one RC beam without strengthening (referred

Ultra-high performance concrete reinforced with macro fibres recycled from waste GFRP composites
Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is a promising cementitious composite to produce lightweight and high-performance structures. Steel fibres are an essential constituting material of UHPC to prevent the brittle failure of UHPC, but the high cost ...

Utilizing Full UHPC Compressive Strength in Steel Reinforced UHPC Beams
Steel reinforced ultra-high performance concrete (R/UHPC) flexural members commonly fail by fracture of the steel reinforcement after crack localization rather than crushing of the cement-based matrix as expected in traditional reinforced concrete. When failing after crack localization, R/UHPC specimens show low drift capacity and the high composite ...
