W-CE-033 High Performance Concrete

Zoom Webinar – link to webinar will be sent one hour before the start of the webinar

High-performance concrete (HPC) exceeds the properties and constructability of normal concrete. Normal and special materials are used to make these specially designed concretes that must meet a combination of performance requirements. Special mixing, placing, and curing practices may be needed to produce and handle high-performance concrete. Performance tests are usually required to demonstrate compliance with specific project needs. High-performance concrete has been primarily used in bridges, and tall buildings for its durability, strength, and high modulus of elasticity. It has also been used in shotcrete repair, poles, tunnels, parking garages, and agricultural applications.
