Application of Engineered Cementitious Composite (ECC) as a Bridge Deck Overlay

Traditional high-performance concrete (HPC) overlays for bridge decks often deteriorate due to factors such as heavy traffic loads, shrinkage, and environmental weathering. The costs of replacing aging or damaged concrete overlays are substantial, emphasizing the need for more durable, cost-effective, and sustainable alternatives. Additionally, there is a growing focus on using energy-efficient materials with minimal environmental impact for infrastructure rehabilitation projects.
