I am looking for a comparison in square foot cost for a lightweight versus normal weight precast concrete bridge mounted noise barrier. I realize there are many other lightweight systems available, however my client is specifically requesting information on the concrete system only. The height of the barrier will be about 26 ft above bridge deck. The project is located in NJ. Any input would be appreciated.

At last, a real application for MearlCrete:


When I was in high school, 50 years ago, I worked for a structural engineer who had a block of the stuff in his office. I was totally fascinated with it; it looked like a coarse Styrofoam, except for the gray color and the distinctive odor of concrete, and it weighed, well, not nothing, but a lot less than you'd expect concrete to weigh.
