Global Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) Market Executive Summary

Ultra-High-Performance Concrete (UHPC), also known as reactive powder concrete (RPC) is a relatively cementitious, concrete material with very high strength, ductility, and durability. UHPC strengthened with fiber can be treated as a combination of three concrete technologies i.e. self-compacting concrete (SCC), fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC), and high-performance concrete (HPC). UHPC has the potential to be a viable solution for enhancing the sustainability of architecture when compared to other conventional concrete products owing to its multifunctional properties such as high strength, energy capacity, and durability. It has a minimum specified compressive strength of 17,000 pounds per square inch (120 MPa) with specified durability, tensile ductility, and toughness requirements.
