Abstract

As the demand for higher-strength of concrete is increasing, the research on Ultra-High Strength Concrete (UHSC) has the spectacular development in recent years. The purpose of this paper is to compare and summarize the properties of UHSC with different raw materials based on the published research and share it with researchers involved in the study of UHSC. Thus, papers relevant to UHSC were identified through a systematic literature search. The use of supplementary cementitious materials such as silica fume (SF), fly ash (FA), ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), nanomaterials and fibers that were widely used in UHSC was investigated. This results in UHSC with promising compressive strength and better workability. Curing under high temperatures found denser microstructure and higher strength than standard curing.
