Experience with Prefabricated UHPFRC in the Netherlands
In spite of intensified research efforts during the past decade, the number of applications with Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) is still limited. This chapter describes the experience of Hurks Beton, a Dutch producer of prefabricated concrete elements, with UHPFRC‐applications in the Netherlands. Examples of UHPFRC‐applications of Hurks Beton are described and distinguished in three categories: durable applications, applications in infrastructure and architectural applications. Examples of applications with UHPFRC are the following: façade elements, columns, bridge decks, water‐retaining structures, hollow‐section elements, prestressed girders and sheet piles. In some cases an optimized production technique had to be developed and special moulds were applied.
