Assessment and Optimization of the Casting Procedure for Precast UHPC Structural Elements

The objective of this research is to develop a casting procedure with a defined confidence level for ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) products which would remove the necessity of full-scale testing of structural elements and mock-ups for individual Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) projects, while maintaining the reliability of UHPC strength properties assumed in design.
