ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: Ductal® is a reactive powder concrete that exhibits exceptional mechanical and durability properties. VSL has been involved with the development of this technology into structural solutions over the last ten years. Recently, concepts of two different bridges exploring the capabilities of Ductal® to the fullest have been developed. One of these is the BrennerPass footbridge located in Europe, a cable stayed structure that supports a light rail track. The other series of bridges is located in New Zealand and provides access to a variety of train stations. The design and fabrication of these two bridges is described in this paper.
