Sub-working group 1 of the Japan Concrete Institute (JCI) committee on Utilization of High-Strength Concrete (HSC) and High-Performance Concrete (HPC) (JCI-TC063A) has been working on collecting information from research on HSC and HPC as well as their practical use. The committee published a report in 2006 in Japanese. The objective of the report is to present state-of-the-art information on concrete with strengths in excess of about 60 MPa and high-strength steel reinforcement such as prestressing steel, excluding concrete made with atypical materials, such as fibers, or uncommon techniques. It primarily addresses the mechanical properties of high-strength concrete and high-strength steel reinforcement. A concise digest of the report has already been published as a keynote paper in the proceedings of 8th International Symposium on Utilization of HSC and HPC in October 2008 in Tokyo. This paper is based on the keynote paper with additional information on High Strength Steel, HSS, reinforcing bars in Japan.

Ultra‐high performance concrete (UHPC) is an emerging class of cementitious materials with the strength and durability characteristics that far exceed those of normal‐strength concrete (NSC). While the use of UHPC in bridge structures has significantly advanced, the same cannot be stated for building structures. Among possible building applications, this study focuses on the use of UHPC in shear walls, where a significant loading demand is anticipated from the lateral loads due to wind and/or earthquake events. Upon validating a set of finite‐element models with the experimental test results, a holistic investigation has been performed in the current study to evaluate a variety of UHPC shear walls. In particular, the main structural response measures, including initial stiffness, force‐displacement relationship, and strength loss under cyclic lateral loads, have been extracted and compared. The study has been then extended to systematically investigate the effects of key design variables, such as wall thickness, aspect ratio, axial force, steel reinforcement, presence of boundary elements, and strength of embedded steel bars. The outcome of this study provides the building sector with firsthand information regarding the possibility of replacing NSC with UHPC in shear walls. This will be an important step forward to improve the safety and performance of building structures, especially where they are exposed to a high risk of wind and/or earthquake hazards.

Differential axial shortening (DAS) between columns and core, due to timedependent phenomena and elastic deformation, is a very important aspect to be considered in the design of concrete high-rise buildings. This research compares the DAS of 250-and 500-m-tall buildings considering different materials for the columns and core. In fact, a parametric study is performed to evaluate the effects on DAS when using composite, reinforced concrete (RC), or highperformance concrete (HPC) columns, such as an RC or lightweight aggregate RC (LWARC) core. A finite element commercial software has been validated and then employed to estimate the DAS. All studied cases are defined on the basis of the Cristal Tower, located in Madrid, to provide reliable estimates of DAS. Results illustrate that columns made of HPC present lower DAS at infinite time and required diameters similar to the composite solution. Furthermore, an LWARC core shows higher axial shortenings compared to the RC alternative. For these reasons, the combination of HPC columns with the LWARC core is presented as a promising solution to reduce the effects of DAS in tall buildings.
