  • Application of Ultra-High Performance Concrete in Bridge Engineering
    Construction and Building Materials, 2018
    Co-Authors: Mi Zhou, Lu Wei, Jianwei Song, George C. Lee
    Abstract:

    Abstract Ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) is a type of cement-based composite, which is the most innovative product in concrete technology during the last 30 years. The advantages of UHPC compared with the common concrete, such as superior mechanical performance, excellent anti-seismic property and resistance against environmental degradation are introduced in the paper. The paper begins by briefly introducing its history of development and technical performance. Then, the research and application situation of UHPC in Bridge Engineering are discussed and many practical applications in Bridge bearing component, Bridge deck pavement and Bridge joints are summarized. Moreover, the paper analyzes advantages and shortcomings of UHPC and the constraints for the application of UHPC in Bridge Engineering. In addition, the performance of UHPC in seismic resistance and anti-explosion is briefly summarized. Based on these works, prediction of UHPC further research in the future is prospected.

  • review of ultra high performance concrete and its application in Bridge Engineering
    Construction and Building Materials, 2020
    Co-Authors: Junqing Xue, Bruno Briseghella, Fuyun Huang, Camillo Nuti, Habib Tabatabai, Baochun Chen
    Abstract:

    Abstract Due to the superior mechanical properties and durability, the ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) has been widely used for the design of various types of structures, while research on its performance has been rapidly growing in the last five years. While the application of UHPC in Bridge Engineering is limited due to its higher cost, relatively little is known about the mechanical behavior of UHPC in different Bridge components. In order to inform future research needs, this paper provides a comprehensive review of the properties of UHPC and its application in Bridge Engineering. Applications in various Bridge components, such as the piers, girders, decks, and link slabs used for jointless Bridges have been summarized. This review also discusses future research on optimized UHPC mix designs considering economic cost and its applications in both jointed and jointless Bridges.
