• Abstract:
  The strength and durability of highway bridges are two of the key components in maintaining a ; high level of freight transportation capacity on the nation’s highways. ; The CFIRE project 04-09 demonstrated the feasibility of a new hybrid engineered cementitious ; composite (SECCs), engineered cement based concrete combined with polyvinyl alcohol fibers ; and hydrophobic compounds, to create a substitute concrete material which can provide the ; strength and durability demanded in key regions of highway bridges. The Phase II project ; investigated the durability of the developed SECCs.
