Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/27/2019 -- Introduction

Ultra-high-performance concrete is defined as concrete with compressive strength greater than 150 MPa. It is an optimized gradation of granular constituents with water-to-binder ratio of less than 0.25. It contains high percentage of fiber reinforcement. Ultra-high-performance concrete is preferably used in several concrete coatings, due to its lower price than other conventional concrete coatings.

Ultra-high-performance concrete typically does not contain large amounts of aggregates and hence, it can be applied as a thin layer over concrete. Ultra-high-performance concrete possesses improved mechanical properties and higher durability compared to conventional concrete. It can prevent freeze, sulfate attack, alkali silica reaction, corrosion, and, possibly, hairline cracking. It is applied as a thin-bonded overlay for concrete bridge decks and pavements.

Global Ultra-high-performance Concrete Market: Developments and Trends

The global ultra-high performance concrete market is a very dynamic market, and is expected to witness high growth over the forecast period. The global ultra-high performance concrete market is driven by the increasing demand for durable, and high strength concrete in applications such as seismic structures, piers, and marine anchors. Ultra-high performance concrete is extensively used for both structural and non-structural precast components, which is further driving the growth of the market over the forecast period.

Ultra-high performance concrete is widely used to improve the sustainability of buildings and other infrastructure components owing to its versatile properties such as high strength, energy capacity, and durability as compared to other conventional concrete products. The properties exhibited by Ultra-high performance concrete make it ideal for use in panels and components as they have to perform under shock, explosive conditions, and impact loads. Furthermore, the growth of this market might be hampered due to factors such as the high cost associated with the establishment of manufacturing facilities.
