 HIGHWAY TECHNET VIRTUAL EXPO PAVEMENTS INDEX Concrete Mix Technology It's All In the Mix DP-75 Mobile Concrete Laboratory |
|
|
The concrete mix technology (CMX) group is currently focuses on two key areas: (1) field management of
concrete mixes, and (2) the design and construction of
high-performance concrete bridges and pavements. An innovative
mobile concrete laboratory is used to conduct workshops on
state-of-the-art concrete technology as a technology transfer
aid. Innovative and rapid testing
methods for concrete and nondestructive testing equipment are emerging as a promising means of
increasing productivity as well as quality. The activities
of this technology group also include a 1-day workshop on
nondestructive testing technology and an equipment loan
program.
In the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) area, showcase
activities include concrete
durability, alkali-silica reactivity, and high-performance
concrete bridges. Above all, every activity and technology
analysis in the CMX group is focused on producing and testing
for a more durable and better quality concrete.
