For obtaining an in-depth understanding of the performance of UHPC shear walls in comparison to NSC shear walls, the UHPC-W01 shear wall was further investigated with the assumption of using NSC (labeled as NSC-W01). In the modeling of NSC shear wall, the concrete's compressive strength was assumed to be 50 MPa.

Finally, the concrete compressive strength was mathematically determined by using the previously mentioned parameters. The accuracy of the proposed method for concrete compressive strength assessment ranged between 92 and 94%. The precision was established with respect to the destructive testing of concrete cores.

The compressive strength of the porous concrete increases from 5.23 MPa to 6.12 MPa at 28 days, with the paste aggregate ratio increasing from 1/6 to 1/4. This leads to a thicker cover layer of aggregates and a more compact interfacial transition zone, resulting in the decrease in the void ratio and the increase in compressive strength.
