Project completed in Jul 2021 using ceEntek ce200SF-GTM
This was ceEntek’s first project utilizing CAT MB250 mixers. Trial batches were completed in early June to ensure the viability of the mixers. The ceEntek team was able to provide an SOP and mix design for these mixers. These mixers, provided by the contractor, eliminated the need for power buggies or wheelbarrows due to their mobile design and hatch to allow easy casting.
The UHPC used in this project connected five precast approach slabs on each side of the bridge: a total of eight connections. Casting of UHPC was completed over two weekends, and crews worked overnight to expedite the bridge construction.
Deterioration of the bridge deck led to necessary repairs. UHPC was used to quickly provide strength for heavy traffic and prevent the necessity of future repairs.
