Abstract:

High durability and high tensile strength makes ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) an ideal material for bridges, while its early shrinkage in the construction of cast-in-situ mass concrete leads structure crack-easily, which restricts the application of UHPC in deck system. Whether reasonable amount of coarse aggregate can influence the strength of UHPC and improve the shrinkage performance or reduce the cost is still in doubt. Besides, in order to improve its constructability and workability, whether autoclaved curing system of UHPC can be changed remains to be further researched. In response to these circumstances, a systematic experimental study on the strength of UHPC mixed with coarse aggregate in different ratios has been presented in this paper. The three curing systems, namely standard curing, 180-200℃/1.1 MPa autoclaved curing, and hot water curing were tested to reveal the relationship between UHPC's properties and curing systems, and the UHPC's microstructure was also preliminarily studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The experimental research can draw the following conclusions. Under the condition of the same mix ratio, autoclaved curing guarantees the highest compressive strength, followed by hot water curing and standard curing. The compressive strength of concrete increases with the temperature in the range of 25 to 90℃ hot water curing, and high temperature in precuring period can speed up the strength development of UHPC, but the sequence of precuring period does not obviously affect the results. In 90℃ hot water and autoclaved curing, the strength is over 150 MPa, and it has little relation with gravel ratio. While the value increases first and then decreases in a lower temperature curing with the increasing of gravel amount, even only about 80 MPa at room temperature. The strength increases moderately along with the increase of the curing age by standard curing, especially in the initial stage.
