Abstract This work investigated the effect of suspending mortar rheology and casting method on fiber dispersion and orientation of UHPC. The test results showed that the fiber dispersion coefficient and fiber orientation coefficient decreased with the increase of plastic viscosity for flowable UHPC with (200±10) mm mini-slump flow and prepared by conventional, 30° chute, and flow-induced casting methods. On the other hand, the fiber dispersion coefficient was increase by 25%—43% with the increase of plastic viscosity for self-consolidating UHPC with (270±10) mm mini-slump flow. The increase ratio for fiber orientation coefficient was 20% when 30° chute and flow-induced casting methods were used. For a given mini-slump flow and plastic viscosity, UHPC prepared by flow-induced casting method showed the greatest flexural strength and toughness, followed by 30° chute, while the conventional casting methods led to the lowest flexural strength and toughness. With the increase of plastic viscosity, flexural strength and toughness of UHPC casted by flow-induced method can be enhanced by 55% and 70%, respectively.
