UHPC Footbridge over the Opatovický Canal

Article Preview

Abstract:

Article deals with design of footbridge made from ultra high performance concrete (UHPC). UHPC is relatively new type of cementitious material with high compressive strength and high durability. For reliable design of construction from this material an extensive experimental research and verification of material properties are needed. Skanska and Pontex company with cooperation with Klokner institute developed matrix of UHPC used for footbridge construction. Material properties were verified during whole developing and producing process. Footbridge was casted in precast plant Skanska – Steti in December 2014. It was installed over Opatovický canal in October 2015. Contribution describes design, production and installation of footbridge. Material properties of used UHPC are also included.
