Abstract:Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) has attracted much interest in the bridge engineering community due to its strength, ductility, and durability, but its high cement content has made it expensive and less environmentally friendly (due to the CO2 emission resulting from cement manufacture. The objective of this innovative pilot research project was to evaluate the important material properties of a cost-effective and environmentally friendly geopolymer-based UHPC, also called ultra-high-performance geopolymer (UHPG), that may be a very attractive option for future bridge construction and repair.
