Strain Hardening UHPFRC: Optimization for Tensile Loading Behaviour using High Modulus Polyethylene Fibres

Combining the high strength of Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) and the strain capacity of Strain Hardening Cementitious Composites (SHCC), Strain Hardening Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (SH­UHPFRC) could be a promising material for the application of strengthening RC elements. This research describes the development of...

The elevated metro structure in concrete, UHPC and composite

In some large cities, the infrastructure is elevated high above the ground. An elevated metro system has the advantage that its construction is cheaper compared to an underground metro system. The construction time is relative limited and the physical barrier is small. The large elevation has a positive influence on the visual hindrance of an...
