Fire resistance of 3D printed ultra-high performance concrete panels [PDF]

open access: yes
Ultra-high performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) is highly suitable for 3D concrete printing (3DCP) due to its high flexural strength, thereby reducing the need for reinforcements.

Influence of Cracking on Oxygen Transport in UHPFRC Using Stainless Steel Sensors

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Reinforced concrete elements frequently suffer small cracks that are not relevant from the mechanical point of view, but they can be an entrance point for aggressive agents, such as oxygen, which could initiate the degradation processes. Fiber-Reinforced
