The term reactive powder concrete (RPC) has been used to describe a fibre reinforced , superplasticized, silica fume-cement mixture with very low water-cement ratio, characterized by the presence of very fine aggregates instead of ordinary aggregate. It is having compressive strength about 150MPa. Fibres are incorporated in RPC in order to enhance the fracture properties of the composite material. Reactive powder concrete, is recognised as a revolutionary material that provides a combination of ultra-high strength and excellent durability. However, production of reactive powder concrete is not yet available with the limited research in this area. This paper investigates mechanical and fresh concrete properties of reactive powder concrete.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
