Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is a type of cement-based composite for new
construction and/or restoration of existing structures to extend service life. UHPC features …

The interest of researchers in UHPC has increased over the past decade. It is crucial to
understand the structural behavior of reinforced UHPC (R/UHPC) components under …

Use of steel fibers in ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) plays a significant role in
enhancing strength and toughness and restraining shrinkage. This paper investigates the …

The inferior mechanical properties and durability of conventional lightweight concrete restrict
its wider application. This study intended to design a novel lightweight ultra high …

To reduce the dead load of concrete structures, this study developed a high performance
lightweight aggregate concrete (HPLAC) by combining the use of ultra high performance …

For concrete with low water-to-binder ratio, the autogenous shrinkage often takes up most of
the total shrinkage. In restrained structures, this kind of shrinkage will produce tensile stress …

With advances in construction industry, restraining the shrinkage cracking of cement-based
materials has become increasingly prominent. Shrinkage reducing admixtures (SRA) can …

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC), known for its exceptional mechanical properties,
sustainability, and durability, has carved a niche for itself in the construction industry …

High strength and light weight are two recent opposite development trends of concrete. This
study proposed a design concept of an ultra high-performance lightweight cementitious …

In this study, the expansion mechanisms of calcium-sulfoaluminates-CaO based expansive
agent (CSA-CaO EA) on the volume stability of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) …
