HPC - Pavements (1732 words) |
 | South Dakota- HPC is being used in new bridge decks on two bridges in Sioux Falls, one bridge with steel girders and one bridge with prestressed concrete girders. |
 | HPC girders and decks will also be used in a pair of bridges on 1-29 over a railroad near Sioux Falls. |
 | The effect of using HPC in the deck on the flexural strength, ductility, prestress losses and long-term deflections of the superstructure were evaluated. |
| May 1997 Focus - HPC Lead States Team Plans Implementation Strategies (930 words) |
 | The team is asking States that build HPC bridges to help amend and expand the definition based on what they learn from their bridge projects. |
 | HPC uses the same basic ingredients as regular concrete, but is mixed and proportioned to yield concrete of the strength and durability needed for a particular bridge or pavement. |
 | HPC showcase workshops are also scheduled for June 24-26 in Richmond, Virginia, and September 22-23 in Waterville Valley, New Hampshire. |
