Mechanical and Fracture Mechanics Properties of Ultra-HighPerformance Concrete
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 5
Abstract
This paper presents the results of an experimental study conducted to develop and evaluate the compressive strength, flexural strength and drying shrinkagewhich are three important properties of ultra-highperformance concrete (UHPC). In this study, sixteen mixtures with different ratios of silica fume, crushed quartz powder, steel fibers, sand typeand different aggregate size were prepared. The effect of utilized materials on mechanical properties of UHPC was experimentally concludedand analyzed by ANOVA test.
