Can UHPC be a sustainable, environmentally-conscious solution? Long-term material and cost savings, little maintenance required, and overall higher quality throughout service life. Fewer CO2 emissions
This paper investigates the hydroelastic behavior of modular floating structures (MFS) made from ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) reinforced with prestressed fiber-reinforced
Ductal® is a fibrous, ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) which is available with a photovoltaic film incorporated into the large-format panels.
The following report describes the general handling and quality control procedures including the storage, forming, batching and curing of architectural UHPC. In addition, several applications utilizing
Available in three sizes for electric vehicle charging or commercial level power, the cabinet has panels of UHPC whose compressive strength exceeds 15,000 psi and robust nature provides two hours of
While practical engineering applications of UHPC in floating structures are not found, some studies explored design concepts utilizing UHPC as a fundamental material in FPV systems.
Successful achievements on the application of UHPC can be seen throughout the world. However, there are still barriers limiting its applications.
The use of UHPC in facade cladding also allows for the integration of sustainable features like solar panels, photovoltaic cells, or rainwater harvesting systems.
In this study, a hydrodynamic-structural-material coupled analytical model is developed for water wave interaction with very large floating photovoltaic support structures, which are consisted of
UHPC is a cementitious composite material composed of an optimized gradation of granular constituents, and a high percentage of discontinuous internal fiber reinforcement.
