When Radcrete’s Managing Director last visited Sweden in 1996, fly ash concretes were well established and used exclusively in infra-structure.

In the harsh Swedish environment it soon became apparent, particularly noticeable in bridges not even coming close to anticipated design life!

Mr Byrne has been warning the construction industry of premature concrete deterioration caused by fly ash cement replacement for years, but so far only the Swedish authorities have listened and recently abolished use of blended concretes on infrastructure projects.

Heritage listed, 2nd oldest reinforced concrete girder bridge in South Australia was repaired and restored with RADCON Formula #7®.

The Sir William Goodman Bridge, located between Holland Street in Thebarton and Manton Street in Hindmarsh, was consructed back in 1908 as the only tram bridge in Adelaide.

The prestigious King Abdullah Bridge, located within the Riyadh City region, was a landmark development.  Being located in the tough Gulf environment, it was important to the constructors that all products can withstand such extreme conditions whilst still able to perform.

Constructed by Japanese construction giants IHI and a joint venture of Sumitomo-Mitsui and Vinaconex, the Nhat Tan bridge is part of an 8 lane highway that will link Hanoi city with Noi Bai International Airport.  The total project is 8.3km long with 1.5km in cable stayed bridges spanning the Red River.

Radcon Formula # 7^®’s reputation in Japan is indisputable; it has been applied on infrastructure all over the country for 20 years now.

 We have decided to visit earlier applications to showcase the ability of Radcon to stand the test of time.

 This rail bridge is located on the Sagami Railway’s Izumino line located in Yokohama. The area covered is 1,200 sq mtrs and was completed in 1997.

This elegant bridge located in the Alps in the Northern region of Italy was a perfect candidate for the use of Radcon Formula # 7®.

 It is regularly exposed not only to ice and snow but to de-icing salts and the heavy machinery associated with keeping the roads clear in these areas.

These toll ways in Croatia were recently repaired and treated with Radcon Formula # 7® by Radcrete's exclusive distributor, GIFIKS. In all, three sites were treated, Komin, Ludbreg and Varazdin, totalling 2,600 sq mtrs
