The Concrete Innovation and Development Center (HBS) is proud to have achieved the technology to produce Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC), a feat accomplished by only 10 to 15 countries worldwide. We are honored to contribute to the growth and advancement of concrete technology in Iran.
Key properties of this concrete include:
-
- Extremely high compressive strength up to 200 MPa (compared to 20-40 MPa for ordinary concrete)
- Very high tensile strength from 4 to 10 MPa (ordinary concrete tensile strength is 0)
- High flexural strength up to 40 MPa due to fiber reinforcement (compared to 4-6 MPa for ordinary concrete)
- High ductility (ability to withstand tensile loads even after cracking)
- No need for reinforcement for non-load-bearing parts
- High durability with a very low water-to-cement ratio
- Chloride ion penetration resistance
- Can be produced in various shapes with self-compacting performance
- Excellent resistance to abrasion and high temperatures
- Minimal creep and shrinkage after curing
