Summary:

This TechBrief is a technical summary of the unpublished Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) report, Simultaneous Structural and Environmental Loading of an Ultra-High Performance Concrete Component, available through the National Technical Information Service (NTIS) (PB2010 110331). This TechBrief highlights the results of a study aimed at evaluating the inelastic tensile response of ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) subjected to simultaneous structural and environmental loading. This experimental investigation focused on the response of a UHPC beam subjected to concurrent inelastic flexural loading and 15% NaCl solution application. The results provide insight into the sustained robustness of UHPC structural members loaded beyond their tensile cracking strength.
