Abstract

The ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) has very special properties that are expressively different of normal concrete. Due to its high compression strength greater than 150 MPa, tensile strength greater than 20 MPa and improved durability, these represent significant advances in concrete technology. These materials include Portland cement, silica fume, quartz flour, fine silica sand, high-range water-reducer, water and either steel or organic fibres. Depending on the type of fibres used can influence the compressive strength. The article describes the tests of frost resistance on UHPC plates with different types of textiles armatures. The aim of the testing is describe influence of textiles armatures in UHPC matrix in extreme conditions.
