Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC): 4 PDH

$24.00

In this course the student will understand the unique properties, design implications, and practical applications of Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC), particularly in bridge infrastructure. They will grasp how UHPC differs from conventional concrete, including its superior strength, durability, and performance in extreme conditions.Instructor: Raymond Bosek, PE

SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE OR SKILL OBTAINED

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

    • Differentiate UHPC from conventional and high-performance concretes in terms of material composition, mechanical strength, and durability.
    • Analyze the mechanical properties of UHPC, including compressive and tensile strengths, modulus of elasticity, and fatigue behavior.
    • Design structural elements using UHPC by applying appropriate load resistance principles and reinforcement strategies.
    • Evaluate the curing, mixing, and placement methods critical to achieving UHPC’s optimal performance in the field.
    • Assess the long-term durability of UHPC in various environmental conditions including freeze-thaw cycles, marine exposure, and fire resistance.
    • Identify current and potential applications of UHPC in infrastructure projects worldwide, with an emphasis on bridge engineering.

CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION

You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a 20 question multiple-choice quiz. The quiz can be retaken unlimited times until a passing grade of 70% or better is earned. This course satisfies four (4) hours of professional development (PDH).
