Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is characterized by high strength and has the potential to revolutionize the construction industry. UHPC is also referred as reactive powder concrete (RPC). It is formulated by mixing Portland cement with other materials like silica fume, fine silica sand, quartz flour, high degree moisture eliminator, and organic fibers such as steel, etc.
Ultra-high-performance concrete offers excellent strength, superior durability & aesthetics, resistance to corrosion, abrasion & impact assuring low maintenance and long life to the construction, thus improved sustainability. These qualities make UHPC a good choice of material for bridges/flyover, highways, and other infrastructures projects. Leverage to the rapidly erecting smart city projects worldwide, the scope for UHPC is widening.
According to Market Research Future (MRFR), the ultra-high performance concrete market is projected to perceive a moderate growth by 2023, registering a CAGR of 7% throughout the forecast period (2017 to 2023). Rising population, rapid industrialization & urbanization, and the improving economy, worldwide, are the key driving forces behind the market growth.
Favorable government policies & initiatives of infrastructure development projects are positively impacting market growth. Moreover, rising demand for eco-friendly & sustainable construction and government support, fuel the demand for ultra-high performance concrete. The hotel industry is surging owing to the growing travels sector.
Usages of ultra-high-performance concrete in the hotel sector to ensure faster quality construction defines the UHPC market landscape in the recent future. Ultra-high performance concrete offers efficiency and durability, assuring the structural safety that makes it an excellent solution for large-scale construction projects.
Adversely, volatility in the prices and the demand-supply gap in the raw materials required for the production of UHPC is expected to impede the growth of the market during the forecast period. Ultra-high-performance concrete can withstand substantially greater load bearings, therefore eliminate the requirement of numerous other support features & expensive column construction inside the building.
This feature allows magnificently appealing interiors, creating fluidity &functionality. Furthermore, ultra-high-performance concrete is lightweight, which minimizes the need for extra material needed for a deeper foundation for a building. All these factors would commutatively contribute to the growth of the market.
