The Freyssinet Test Arch (in French Arche d'essai Freyssinet) is a prestressed concrete arch built in 1909 in Moulins, Allier by Eugène Freyssinet1. Its purpose was to test the resistance of this material to traction exerted on very flat and long-range arches. Freyssinet wanted to validate this prestressed concrete technique which he had perfected before the construction of three road bridges over the Allier river which he was to undertake in the following years: the , the and the Châtel-de-Neuvre bridge. As the first testimony to this innovative technique, the arch has been registered as a Monument historique since October 2021 with Boutiron Bridge, the only existing original bridge of the three.

  • L'arche d'essai Freyssinet est une arche en béton précontraint construite en 1909 à Moulins (Allier) par Eugène Freyssinet. Elle avait pour but de tester la résistance de ce matériau à la traction exercée sur des arcs très plats et de longue portée. Freyssinet voulait valider cette technique du béton précontraint qu'il avait mise au point avant la construction de trois ponts sur l'Allier qu'il allait entreprendre les années suivantes : le pont du Veurdre, le pont Boutiron et le pont de Châtel-de-Neuvre . Premier témoin de cette technique innovante, l'arche est inscrite aux Monuments historiques depuis octobre 2021. (fr)
