Presentation Topic: Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) for Bridge Deck Rehabilitation
UHPC has been used for the last few decades mainly as a joint fill material to connect prefabricated concrete elements, particularly for precast deck panels. However, not every structure needs a full deck replacement. This one-hour presentation will provide an overview of the state-of-the-art for the design, constructability, and feasibility of using UHPC for bridge deck overlays. Case studies, most notably the Delaware Memorial Bridge (Twin Suspension Bridge) will be discussed throughout the presentation.

The CSCE of the present is the result of a merger of two organizations that occurred more than 35 years ago. The Connecticut Society of Civil Engineers was founded in 1884, while the Connecticut Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers was founded in 1919. In 1958, the Section had 523 members. In 1955 (the nearest comparable year for reliable numbers), the Society had 1,033 members. The two organizations met separately until they merged in 1981, by mutual vote of membership, to become the Connecticut Society of Civil Engineers Section of American Society of Civil Engineers or CSCE.
