Sumario:[EN] ABSTRACT Materials and mechanical design procedures for ultra-high performance cement composites (UHPC) members based on analytical models are addressed. A procedure for the design of blended components of UHPC is proposed using quaternary cementitious materials. The blending procedures are used using a packing and rheology optimization approach to blend high performance mixtures using non-proprietary formulations. Closed-form solutions of moment-curvature responses of UHPC are derived based on elastic-plastic compressive model and trilinear strain hardening tension stress strain responses. Tension stiffening behavior of UHPC due to fiber toughening and distributed cracking is then incorporated in the cross-sectional analysis. Load-deflection responses for beam members are obtained using moment-area, and direct integration approach. The proposed models provide insights in the design of SHCC to utilize the hardening properties after cracking. Using proper parameters, generalized materials model developed are applicable to both SHCC and strain softening cement composites such as steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC), textile reinforced concrete (TRC) and ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC)
