Ultra - high performance concrete (UHPC) is a cement - based material with outstanding durability and mechanical traits. The application of steel fibers in UHPC is crucial:
Mechanical boost: Steel fibers curtail crack start and spread in UHPC. They bridge cracks, enabling UHPC to endure more tensile force. This heightens ductility, tensile and flexural strength, and toughness. Hooked - end steel fibers, for instance, strengthen bonding via interlocking.
Durability rise: Adding steel fibers makes UHPC more durable. It resists weathering, heavy loads, and boosts resistance to corrosion, wear, and fatigue, especially in tough conditions.
Fire resistance enhancement: Despite some impact on fire resistance, UHPC's overall performance remains good because of its makeup. The mix of heat - resistant parts in UHPC and proper steel fiber addition helps it withstand high heat and lessens explosive spalling risk.
Expanded uses: Steel - fiber - reinforced UHPC has broad applications. It's used in bridge building (decks, girders, piers), precast elements (wall panels, beams, columns), structure repair, seismic/blast - resistant setups, and offshore projects.
