The Commodore Barry Bridge spans over the Delaware River from Chester PA to Bridgeport NJ. Originally constructed in 1969 and named after the Revolutionary War Hero from Philadelphia John Barry. This bridge is a cantilever truss bridge which was commonly built during those times. 

The existing roadway was in need of rehabilitation, and Ductal® Overlay was selected due to the durability and service life improvements of using the superior technology. Challenge was to remove the deteriorated concrete using Hydro-demolition, to provide a sound surface for the Overlay solution to bond to. Batched on site the solution provided a well consolidated finish that suited the required slopes over the entire structure

Deformation of the concrete rolling surface, structural deficit in terms of puncture resistance, sloping terrain (5% gradient) ... the equation to be solved for the repair of the covered car park at the Saas-Fee ski resort was arduous. Ductal® took up the challenge and developed an innovative product meeting all these constraints.

State Route 141 over I95 interchange rehabilitation was commenced in 2019 and expected to be fully completed by Spring 2022. Several crossing structures within this interchange utilized precast panels and required UHPC for all the connections.

In partnership with Iowa State University and Iowa State DOT, with participation from Wapello and Buchana counties in Iowa, this project was the first to implement overlay application of UHPC using automated paver system brought by Walo from Europe.

A new life for an emblematic structure: The Kanderviadukt was stabilised using a protective coat of Ductal®.

In 1951, the Delaware Memorial Bridge was opened to traffic allowing commuters to navigate over the Delaware River on a 3,650 ft (1,112 m) long state-of-the-art suspension bridge. The structure is a twin suspension bridge crossing the Delaware River. This roadway is a major artery which carries I-295 from New Jersey to Delaware. This is a toll road where any...

The Chillon Viaducts have been reinforced by an Overlay of Ductal® UHPC. Thanks to its mechanical characteristics and its durability properties, Ductal® was the only material able to provide an efficient retrofitting preserving the bearing capacity of the bridge, a lower maintenance cost and a quick retro commissioning of an important axis of the Swiss highway network. The two Chillon...
