Abstract: | ACI 239C “Structural Design of Ultra-High Performance Concrete” (UHPC) SubCommittee was formed in 2015 with the mid-term goal of developing a new structural design guide for UHPC. Under the guidelines of the American Concrete Institute (ACI) an Emerging Technology Report (ETR) on the structural design of ultra-high performance concrete is being prepared by the subcommittee ACI 239C. The subcommittee of international UHPC experts is targeting a balloted document for completion in 2018. This will be the first North American generated broad based structural design guide for UHPC. This paper covers the background and brief outline of the future structural design document and other North American code and standard developments, with an overview of the technology development and challenges facing the deployment. |
