Thermal Properties of Ultra-High-Performance Concrete: A Review

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) displays superior mechanical and durability performance. Additionally, it is more environmentally friendly than regular concrete and promises to be a workable option to increase infrastructure sustainability. The thermal performance of this type of concrete has reportedly become a subject that needs urgent consideration due to the rise in the utilization of UHPC in various infrastructure designs. This study aims to review the thermal properties of UHPC, including thermal conductivity, mass loss, specific heat, and thermal expansion. It also considers the factors that affect these properties, including exposure temperature, fiber addition, and coarse aggregate.
