Performance Data for Ultrahigh Performance Concrete (UHPC) Bridge Elements

This research project will conduct a series of experiments characterizing the benefits of UHPC in bridge applications. These experiments will be performed using standardized materials performance and durability tests as well as full-scale, instrumented load tests in the main structures lab. Performance data will lead to technical reports, and eventually input directly into American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials guideline documents.
