      abstract = {The twin Chillon Viaduct, situated next to world-famous  Chillon Castle on the A9/E27, was conceived by Jean Muller,  designed by Jean-Claude Piguet, and built in the late  1960s. This chapter focuses on full-scale failure tests on  specimens representing zones between and above the webs of  the box girder. The primary goal was to verify the expected  increase in ultimate resistance due to the R-UHPFRC layer,  as expected through analytical models. The full-scale tests  confirmed that also an unstrengthened slab undergoing  strength reduction due to Alkali-Silica Reaction would not  fail by punching of a wheel load. Casting of the R-UHPFRC  strengthening on the 2.1 km long Chillon Viaduct was  performed during five weeks, ending in September 2014.  Structural design of the strengthening layer was performed  using analytical resistance models which were validated by  non-linear finite element modelling, calibrated to the  present test results.},
