ABSTRACT
Reactive powder concrete (RPC) is a developing composite material that will allow the concrete industry to optimise material use, generate economical benefits, and build structures that are strong, durable and sensitive to environment. Reactive powder concrete is a special mixture that is cured especially to have a higher compressive strength than that of concrete (about 200 MPa).Adding a few steel fibers can greatly improve its tensile and bending strength, its impact resistance, and its toughness.

This paper study enlightens on RPC, its benefits, drawbacks, potential applications of RPC and a better way of making it more economic to be used in a large scale purpose. In order to increase the compressive strength of concrete more, the only way is to remove the coarse aggregate. The philosophy has been employed in what is today known as reactive powder concrete (RPC).It consists of a special concrete where the microstructure is optimized by precise gradation of all particles in the mix to yield maximum density. The so called RPC is a great boon in disguise as its has emerged as successful step in the field of construction of a better and sustainable structure over ages to come.
