Abstract:Laboratory studies have shown that microsilica concrete (MC) has sufficient strength and impermeability to substitute for LMC in bridge deck overlays. In addition, MC can be mixed in off-site batch plants, like Portland cement concrete (PCC). This is an advantage over LMC on certain jobs, as batching LMC requires the use of mobile mixing plants at the jobsite.
To see if MC is a viable alternative to LMC, seven bridges in Oregon were overlaid with this material in 1989.
