Classification of ultra-high-performance concrete
The DAfStb Guideline on “Ultra-High-Performance Concrete” will significantly expand the range of structural concretes compared to DIN EN 206. Compressive strength and axial post-cracking tensile strength are key strength parameters of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC). Based on these parameters, UHPFRC is classified into concrete strength classes and performance classes.
The compressive strength test is carried out in accordance with DIN EN 12390-3, where UHPFRC test specimens of different shapes and sizes show compressive strength ratios deviating from that of...
