Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed an ultra-high strength ductile concrete designated RPC (Reactive Powder Concrete), which was made possible by the application of a certain number of basic principles relating to the composition, mixing and post set heat curing of the concrete.

TL;DR: In this article, a set of ultra-high-strength concretes reinforced with steel fibers was studied with respect to compressive strength and two-point loading strength to define its mechanical behavior.
Abstract: Reactive Powder Concretes (RPC) are a set of ultrahigh-strength concretes reinforced with steel fibers. Their compressive strength is between 200 and 800MPa, and their flexural strength can reach 140MPa.RPC200 has been studied with respect to compressive strength and two-point loading strength to define its mechanical behavior.RPC800, which has been mostly studied from the point of view of compressive strength, displays hardening elastic non-linear behavior at low stress. This behavior is similar to that of some natural rocks. The critical stress intensity factorKIc, and the average fracture energy,\(\bar G_F \), ofRPC200 andRPC800 have been studied experimentally by applying the theory of linear fracture mechanics (compliance method). The fracture energy, which is a measurement of ductility, can reach 40,000 J/m2 forRPC200, as compared to 100 to 150 J/m2 for ordinary concretes. Fracture energy depends on the volume of fibers added to the concrete. The optimum content is between 2 and 3% by volume.
