UHPC – Ultra High Performance Concrete

Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) is a new class of concrete that is exceptionally strong and durable. It is not only ideal for traditional applications of regular concrete, but it also allows for new applications of concrete in areas such as contemporary design that involve thinner components or complex shapes.

  Advantages

  • Easy workability, self-placing and self-densifying properties.
  • Improved mechanical and durability performance with very high compressive strength, and non-brittle behaviour.
  • Enhanced ductile performance.
  • Very low porosity and impermeability.
  • Improved toughness and bond control. 
  • Resistance to acid attack. 
  • Self-healing properties. 

Applications

Claddings made from UHPC gives complex shapes, ultra-fine textures, invisible fixings, long span designs without joinery and true colours.

UHPC due to its unique qualities can be used in many other pre-cast construction purposes such as bridge girders, bridge decks, tunnels, wind turbine towers etc.
