Abstract

Performance of concrete is substantially higher than that of normal type concrete, such concrete is regarded as high performance concrete (HPC). Three of the key attributes to HPC are discussed in this paper. They are: strength, ductility and durability. In order to know the intrinsic differences between normal type concrete and high performance concrete, micro-structure and composition of HPC are studied. Stress strain behavior of HPC under biaxial and triaxial loading are described. Finally, the application of HPC in tall building construction is discussed. This paper provides a general overview of the development of HPC, covering the topic from the laboratory testing to the industrial application.
