Proceedings Pro106 : International Conference on Ultra-High Performance Fibre-Reinforced Concrete
UHPFRC 2017 international symposium is the third major scientific event organized in France on Ultra-High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) applications. After Marseille in 2009 and 2013 where the MuCEM project and realization constituted the iconic UHPFRC implementation, the host city of Montpellier in 2017 will make it possible to visit the Republique Bridge, the residential mansions « La Mantilla » and the new high-speed railway station with its over 8,000 m² roofing UHPFRC « palmes ».
The symposium subtitle is «Designing and Building with UHPFRC: New large-scale implementations, recent technical advances, experience and standards ». It corresponds to the fruitful relation to be found between feedback of recent UHPFRC realizations, forefront research results, and just issued UHPFRC Standards like the French ones dating back 2016.
Over 105 contributions from 20 countries, reviewed by the 59 members of the International Scientific Comittee, are collected in these Proceedings. They testify UHPFRC development in France, Europe, North America and Far East and include descriptions of UHPFRC applications, design studies and research supporting these realizations. Let reading of this material stimulate the researchers’, engineers’ and architects’ creativity!
