Accelerated Bridge Repair using Cellular Concrete

– MOST Engineering Ltd., TDM Engineering, CEMATRIX Cellular Concrete Solutions, and Alberta Transportation Ivor Strong Bridge is a vital and high-volume corridor servicing the City of Calgary. When Alberta Transportation set out to replace the deck joints at the abutments, the project team’s inspection revealed the undersides of the roof slabs were severely deteriorated. The slabs were deemed unsafe for the heavy traffic loads.  The project team developed a repair strategy using non-structural cellular concrete to fill the voids under the roof slabs. This eliminated the need for extensive repair or replacement. The roof slabs were transformed into slabs-on-grade supported by the cellular concrete and underlying compacted soil.
