Bridge deck elements "glue" together with UHPC


Project Chalmers university in 1999
Prefabricate bridge deck components and “glue” together with UHPC Ultra high Performance Concrete

It is a project from 2010 in Denmark.



A UHPC castable material quality with a compressive strength of 
150 MPa / 21750 psi and 475 kg/m3 / 30 lbs/ft3 steel fibres for joints creating a “monolithic” joint. 

The Joint width was 100 mm / 4 inch, used rebars had a diameter of Ø 16 mm / 0.6 inch.

With the on-site casting of the connection of the pre-fabricated bridge deck elements with UHPC, an extremely strong connection is achieved. 
The total package of prefabricated bridge deck elements and UHPC connections between the elements makes installation easier, faster and more cost-effective compared to standard design methods.

  1. We work on various bridge projects, new construction and repair, here in the USA. We would like to have UHPC material from you to test. Some DOTs (Department of Transport) have heard of you and some have not. Where in the US can we get this UHPC casting material?
