Aggregates in many parts of the Middle East are contaminated with gypsum. Therefore, in this study the effects of using gypsum-contaminated natural sand on the compressive strength and expansion of ultra-high performance fiber reinforced cementitious composites (UHPFRCCs) were investigated over a period of one year. Two groups of UHPFRCCs were designed with binary and ternary cementitious blends of Portland cement, silica fume, and/or ground granulated blast furnace slag. Each group consisted of five mixes with different SO3 contents of between 0.11% and 4.5% by weight of natural sand. For each mix, the samples were either water cured or steam cured over a 48 h period. The microstructure of the cementitious composites was also studied by the SEM-EDX. Besides, some findings of UHPFRCCs were compared to those of Portland cement mortars. Test results indicated that UHPFRCCs showed a strength gain, particularly under steam curing and an insignificant expansion even in the presence of excess sulfates, in contrast to the mortars.
