Comparative study of proprietary and non-proprietary ultra-high performance concrete as partial-depth joint replacement
(2020)Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) is a special type of concrete that has unique properties that are desirable for various types of construction projects. The most common form of UHPC used in the field is a proprietary ... -
Design of Continuity Connections for Precast, Pretensioned Girders Using Ultra-High Performance Concrete
(2023-05-12)In recent years, an increased desire to improve the durability and resiliency of bridges has become an important consideration in design. Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is a relatively new cementitious composite ... -
Development of a novel apparatus to determine the multiaxial tensile failure criteria for ultra-high performance concretes
(2021-12)The use of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC), a stronger and more durable class of concrete, has increased in recent years. Large-scale production has been limited due to the cost of proprietary UHPC products, but the ... -
Evaluation of Durability and Corrosion Behavior of Ultra-High Performance Concrete for use in Bridge Connections and Repair
(2019-08-01)Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is one of the new, cutting edge concepts in the world of concrete. Boasting significantly higher compressive and tensile strengths, longer service life, and significantly increased ... -
Evaluation of Surface Preparation and Bond Angle Combinations for Joint Replacement using Ultra-High Performance Concrete
(2018-05-12)Deterioration of bridges is often attributed to declining performance of the longitudinal connections between precast members or transverse deck joints. Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is a cementitious composite ... -
Ultra-High Performance Concrete for Connections of Precast, Prestressed Girders Made Continuous for Live Load
(2019-08-01)Continuity joints have often been employed in bridges with precast, prestressed girders to increase the overall ability of bridges to distribute live loads by making two simple spans continuous. However, if the continuity ...
