| Abstrait: |
Textile-reinforced concrete (TRC) is an innovative composite material consisting of mesh-like textile reinforcements and fine-grained concrete. Since the textiles do not corrode, it is possible to minimize the concrete covers to some millimetres. The results are slender concrete constructions, which not only meet the needs of modern architecture but also have economical and ecological advantages. On the example of a 97 m long TRC pedestrian bridge, which was built in Albstadt, Germany, this papers shows briefly the design and construction of the TRC superstructure. Furthermore, details on the sustainability are presented: The emission of carbon-dioxide in the production process can be reduced and due to the low maintenance, costs can be decreased allowing for an economic construction. |
