Is Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) suitable for the production of highly stressed mechanical machine components such as gear wheels and roller bearings? If this question can be answered with "yes", revolutionary approaches for the production of gear wheels and roller bearings will appear with properties that are not feasible with conventional materials such as steel. Using UHPC, lightweight, non-corrosive and non-conductive gear wheels and roller bearings could be produced with a high compressive strength and surface hardness, respectively, as well as a low thermal conductivity ...
