Ultra-High-Performance Concrete is Ready to Revolutionize Precast, Prestressed Concrete

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is rapidly emerging as a premier material for precast concrete construction. First introduced as “reactive powder concrete” in the early 1990s, this material has seen growing usage in the U.S. and abroad over the past decade. UHPC has been used to construct roadway bridges in France, Japan, and Malaysia; pedestrian bridges in Canada and Venezuela; roof panels and architectural facades in Canada and France; and more.
