Performance assessment of Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composites in view of sustainability

Static properties and impact resistance of a green Ultra-High Performance Hybrid Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPHFRC): Experiments and modeling

“…According to the previous experiences and investigations of the authors [22,75], by applying the modified Andreasen possible to produce a dense and homogeneous skeleton of UHPFRC with a relatively low binder amount (about 650 kg/m 3 ). However, from the available literature, research regarding the design or production of UHPFRC with an optimized particle packing is not sufficient [23][24][25][26]. In most cases, the UHPFRC recipes are given directly, without any detailed explanation or theoretical support.…”

A study of multiple effects of nano-silica and hybrid fibres on the properties of Ultra-High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) incorporating waste bottom ash (WBA)

“…UHPFRC, the optimum packing of the granular ingredients of concrete is considered and applied [9][10][11][12]. According to the previous experiences and investigations of the authors [13], by applying the modified Andreasen and Andersen particle packing model it is possible to produce a dense and homogeneous skeleton of UHPFRC with a relatively low binder amount (about 650 kg/m 3 ).…”

Strengthening of reinforced concrete beams using ultra high performance fibre reinforced concrete (UHPFRC)

“…Comparisons of the mechanical characteristics of the examined mix with other mix designs from relevant studies in the literature [19,20,21] are presented in Table 2.…”

“…UHPFRC is a novel material with superior strength and energy absorption. There are several published studies on UHPFRC and the mechanical properties of this material have been studied extensively [16][17][18][19][20][21]. The percentage of the steel fibres is one of the most crucial parameters affecting the flexural strength and the ductility of UHPFRC elements.…”

“…Experimental test methods appropriate for the evaluation of the mechanical properties of UHPFRC were proposed by Hassan et al [19]. A detailed investigation on the assessment of the performance of UHPFRC was presented by Toledo et al [20], and the development of the mechanical properties of UHPFRC with the time was extensively studied by Habel et al [21]. The direct tensile behaviour of UHPFRC was examined by Kang et al [16], and tri-linear tensile fracture model with softening phase was proposed via an inverse analysis.…”
