Very-Early-Strength Latex-Modified Concrete Overlay

M. M. Sprinkel

The report describes the installation and condition of the first two very-early-strength latex-modified concrete (LMC-VE) overlays to be constructed for the Virginia Department of Transportation. The overlays were prepared with a special blended cement rather than the type I/II cement used in the conventional latex-modified concrete (LMC) overlay. Mixture proportions, installation equipment, and procedures are similar to those used for conventional LMC overlays with the exception that the contractor must work faster because the concrete loses slump rapidly and the curing period is only 3 hours rather than 72.
