The Shawnessy Light Rail Transit (LRT) Station in Calgary, Canada, constructed from 2003 to 2004, is the world's first LRT system to be constructed with ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC).
The combination of innovative materials, methodology, technology together with the boundless dreams of engineers, architects, and other pillars of the industry there will come a time that nothing would be impossible when we talk about building infrastructures.
Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC), also known as reactive powder concrete (RPC), is type of concrete material that has a minimum specified compressive strength of 17,000 pounds per square inch (psi) or 120 Megapascals (MPa)
This is because UHPC uses fine materials for its matrix. When the mixture includes metal, synthetic, or organic fibers, UHPC can have flexural strengths up to around 7,000 pounds per square inch (psi) or 48 Megapascals (MPa).
