Ultra High Performance Concrete, or UHPC, is not your average concrete. With compressive strengths over 120 MPa and flexural strength reaching 22 MPa, this next-generation material is already transforming the global construction industry—from high-speed rail bridges in Europe to designer bathtubs in Mumbai.
In this in-depth episode, Roshan Baladevan demystifies UHPC for builders, civil engineers, architects, factory owners, and anyone looking to get into the precast or high-end concrete manufacturing space.
🔍 Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
- What exactly is UHPC and how it differs from traditional concrete
- Why UHPC is 3–5x stronger than normal concrete and how it eliminates the need for heavy reinforcement
- How countries like the US, Canada, and across Europe have adopted UHPC for infrastructure—bridges, highways, marine structures, and even airports
- The science behind UHPC’s durability and why it performs even under freeze-thaw, water ingress, and extreme weather conditions
- The design opportunities UHPC offers: sleek, modern cladding, furniture, bathtubs, jalis, and even bathroom fittings
- How you can start a UHPC-based manufacturing business in India with just ₹5–6 lakhs investment and a 5,000 sq ft facility
- The actual business case: Lower material use, lower transport costs, higher margins, and longer life span
- India's readiness: How Indian IS codes are now adapting to include UHPC, and where the market is heading
- Common myths around UHPC cost, manufacturing, and market potential—debunked
💡 This episode isn’t just about concrete—it’s about opportunity.
