Summary: | The rheological properties of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) according to the amount of water reducing admixture (WRA) and their effects on the fiber distribution and the tensile performance of UHPFRC were investigated. Four types of mixtures with a high compressive strength over 150 MPa were designed according to the amount of WRA and the flowability, rheological properties, compressive strength, flexural performance, and fiber distribution were measured. Test results showed that the amount of WRA influences both the freshly mixed and hardened properties. It was also revealed that the flexural strength has a strong correlation with rheological properties, compressive strength, and fiber distribution.
