Acquisition of Specialized Testing Equipment for Advanced Cement-Based Materials
This equipment purchase will enabled the development, manufacturing, and implementation of advanced and sustainable materials for transportation infrastructure, with emphasis on concrete. The developments of green technologies that can lead to cost savings are of prime interest. This included projects dealing with the performance of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) in cast-in-place bridge superstructure and substructure elements, use of high volume fly ash concrete (HVFAC) in infrastructure applications, the performance of roller compacted concrete (RCC) for rigid concrete pavement for highways, rural roads, and airfield pavements, as well as the feasibility of using high contents of reclaimed asphalt pavement and reclaimed asphalt roofing shingles in flexible pavement mixtures. The common denominator of these technologies is savings of construction duration and cost and reduction in the carbon footprint of construction materials and activities.
