Reactive powder concrete (RPC) is also known as coarse aggregate free concrete because the traditional coarse aggregates are replaced by fine sand. It is fibre reinforced, super plasticized, silica fume-cement mixture having very low water-cement ratio. It is having compressive strength about 150MPa.The ingredients used in this investigation are Cement (ordinary Portland cement), crushed Quartz Powder, sand, silica Fumes, steel fibres, superplasticizer, pure water. Mix proportion is based on three stage method and as according to chemical position of ingredients. Compressive strength of reactive powder concrete may goes up to 150 - 200MPa as per studies. RPC enhances the microstructure, porosity and permeability can be significantly decreased in the concrete matrix. Thus RPC benefits the durability characteristics of RPC elements providing long service life and fewer maintenance costs as compared to conventional concrete. Reactive powder concrete is identified as uprising material that gives combination of ultra-high strength and excellent durability. RPC will empower the concrete industry by enhancing material uses, providing economic benefits, and constructing strong and durable structures. RPC has been used for making material containers for radiation waste of high integrity due to its durability and low permeability properties. Also for thin shell structural elements and long span structures, fibre reinforced RPC can be used due to its flexural strength. Structures like piers of bridges, blast protection and military construction can be constructed in RPC due to its better impact resistance.
