DEVELOPMENT OF UHPC RECIPES FROM AN ECOLOGICAL POINT OF VIEW


Abstract eng:
Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) is a high-tech building material that - in comparison to normal strength concrete - allows for more slenderness and increased durability when designing RC-structures. The ecological impact of UHPC is driven by the high cement content in the recipe with more than double the amount needed in comparison to normal strength concrete (NSC). Substitution of cement in the recipe by less-energy-intensive hydraulic concrete additives is investigated on its influence to the concrete properties and its environmental impact parameters calculated for the different UHPC recipes.
