description | Abstracts: Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is a cement-based composite used for new construction and/or the restoration of existing structures in order to extend their service life. It is a revolutionary composite material that can serve as a suitable substitute for concrete construction in hostile environments. After decades of research and development, a wide variety of commercial UHPC compositions have been created around the world to meet the expanding number of uses and demand for high-quality building materials. Although UHPC has significant advantages over conventional concrete, its application is limited due to restrictive design rules and high cost. Therefore, a careful review of the various properties of UHPC is necessary to offer key information for material testing criteria and methods and to broaden its practical uses. “Part I reviewed the developments, principles, and raw materials of the UHPFRC. Part II reviewed the hydration and microstructure of the UHPFRC. Part III reviewed the fresh and hardened properties of the UHPFRC. Part IV covers the durability properties, cost assessment, applications, and challenges of the UHPFRC. This Part V covers the mixture design, preparation, mixing, casting, and curing of the UHPFRC.” This review is anticipated to increase the fundamental understanding of UHPC and encourage additional study and applications of UHPC. |
