Size effect on the flexural behavior of UHPFRC beams and RC beams strengthened with UHPFRC
Abstract The presence of fibers in Ultra-High-Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) considerably affects the mechanical behavior of structural elements constructed from this material. While the flexural strength of traditional reinforced concrete beams is size-independent, this is not the case for UHPFRC.

An Advanced Approach to Derive the Constitutive Law of Uhpfrc [PDF]
Abstract More than 200 specimens were tested in a comprehensive experimental campaign using ultra-high performance concrete with a mean compressive strength between 150 and 210 MPa and with different amounts of steel fibre reinforcement (0%, 1% and 2% by volume) from the first 2 days to 1.5 years after casting.
