Japan is located in the international seismic zone, and is also a resource intensive country. It has unique features in the research and application of ultra-high performance concrete materials. The paper analyzes and summarizes the engineering application cases of concrete strength grade above 150 N/mm2, including structural system, mix design, production process, strength grade, etc. Silica fume composite cement, with strict calculation of sand and stone gradation, improves the compactness beyond the conventional concrete; The super high performance water reducing agent can greatly reduce the water cement ratio and improve the working performance, especially the expansion degree; Organic fiber and steel fiber are especially important in fire resistance, explosion resistance and ductility. Ultra-high performance concrete could improve the seismic performance of building structures and the utilization rate of building area, and new materials could provide more choices for design and engineering application.
