Companies which used UHPC Wear Protection in the last 25 years

 

We are always asked who has been used UHPC
Wear protection for the past 25 years. WPE DK our UHPC wear protection specialist, took the task to compile a list of companies who used UHPC as wear protection during these years.

The list includes plant system supplier and plant operators in
worldwide. The list should give an impression of where
UHPC is already standard as wear protection everywhere. In
In many cases, plant operators have the UHPC material
installed by own fitters.

Here is the list:
The company names can change over the years and some
companies probably have merged with other companies.

UHPC Wear protection lining in a titan ore grinding system

After more than 15 years of grinding operations,

the first repair on the UHPC wear protection lining

are now necessary.

More than 15 years ago, the classifier housing and

the fine material discharge of the vertical roller

grinding system were lined with a UHPC wear

protection lining. The grinding system grinds a

special titanium ore for prigment production.

Originally, very little wear was expected and no

wear protection system was planned. However,

the regrind was extremely wear-resistant and after

a very short time after the vertical roller grinding

system was put into operation, the sheet metal 

construction showed considerable wear.

For fluidic reasons, only a layer thickness of 15 mm

for wear protection could be permitted.  The

UHPC wear protection work was started quickly

and was completed within a few days. The

grinding plant was put back into operation after

six days of inactivity.

Recycling of old building materials with HPc and UHPC bindersystems

In our fast-moving times, old houses, some of
them historical houses, are being brutally torn
down to make room for new, more modern,
larger, higher and often not more beautiful but
more effective new building designs. Very
often there is no time left and there is often no
will to secure the valuable and reusable old
building material.

The end of an old building is a heap of rubble
that is only suitable as gravel material for the
subbase material of streets.

The architects in particular could campaign
for the reuse of such materials. It would be
entirely possible to reuse these old materials
in modern design concepts and to save some
valuable raw materials.

This year we will start some attempts to
combine UHPC with a variety of old used
materials. We are very sure that this is
possible without any problems, both in terms
of statics and construction. Of course, with
UHPC we can copy old materials in
appearance and design extremely precisely,
in some cases this is certainly sensible and
necessary. However, we want to reuse old
materials and hand them over to a new
design function. Even building rubble could
become a very interesting concrete material

in combination with UHPC. We also want
to give architects and designers new design
options using old and ultra-modern materials.

An unusual bond and impact test with UHPC mortar

An unusual bond and impact test with UHPC mortar

This test was carried out by us more than 15 years ago. The aim was to test the adhesion of UHPC mortar in a pipe section. For this purpose, a pipe section was provided with only a few small anchors.

Only half the circumference of the pipe section was lined with UHPC mortar in a layer thickness of 25 mm / 1 inch. The half-circumference lining was chosen to increase the load in the event of an impact.

As you can clearly see in this video, the adhesive force of UHPC mortar is so great that it took several impacts and a deformation of the steel structure to release the UHPC mortar lining from the steel structure.

 

 

Garden-, park and costal design with UHPC

Garden and park design
From small private gardens, lakes, rivers and parks of all types and sizes, UHPC is an ideal material for nature-identical structures.

With UHPC, objects such as buildings, rocks, waterfalls, natural stones, etc. can be perfectly integrated into nature.
The benefits of UHPC for the architect and designer are

• UHPC can be easily processed on site or as a prefabricated element of any size and geometry
• UHPC achieves much higher strength values ​​than concrete
• UHPC is extremely corrosion resistant
• UHPC is water impermeable even in small material thicknesses
• UHPC can be processed as a mortar, casting compound or as a spray mass
• UHPC can also be processed under water
• UHPC is absolutely seawater resistant
• With UHPC, the finest surface textures can be achieved
• UHPC is an ideal combination material. It can be combined with nearly all minerals, metals, glasses and plastics without problems
• It can be achieved in constructions that are placed in nature or in water lifetimes up to 100 years.

Shore and coastal design
UHPC of the right quality withstands extreme loads from nature. In addition to the advantages

already described above, the following advantages can be added for the shore and coastal design

• UHPC is extremely resistant to wear and impact in the right composition
• UHPC does not lose its strength either at extremely low temperatures (-180°C / -292°F) or at extremely high temperatures (450°C / 842°F)

UHPC is much better for coastal protection and tsunami protection than standard concrete or steel.
