The Past Decade of UHPFRC Bridges in the Czech Republic

This paper provides an overview of significant UHPFRC structures built in the Czech Republic over the past decade. The use of precast UHPFRC elements in bridge construction has grown substantially during this period. The accumulated knowledge in design, production, and construction culminated in the publication of the new Czech standard, TP 267, in 2024.Additionally, this paper offers a brief insight into the research and development of this advanced composite material, tracing its progression from laboratory studies to real-world construction applications. Concrete examples illustrate this evolution, and upcoming projects, along with future visions for UHPFRC, are also discussed.
