Results for tag: "High Performance Concrete"

High Performance Concrete (HPC) is a type of concrete that is designed to be stronger, more durable, and more resistant to environmental conditions than traditional concrete. It is made with a combination of special admixtures, such as silica fume, fly ash, and superplasticizers, which increase the strength and durability of the concrete. HPC is used in a variety of applications, including bridges, dams, and other infrastructure projects. It is also used in the construction of high-rise buildings, where its superior strength and durability are essential. HPC is part of the larger advanced materials market, which includes materials such as nanomaterials, composites, and smart materials. These materials are used in a variety of industries, including aerospace, automotive, and construction. The advanced materials market is expected to grow in the coming years, driven by increasing demand for high-performance materials. Some companies in the HPC market include BASF, Sika, LafargeHolcim, CEMEX, and HeidelbergCement. Show Less Read more
