Two workshops on pervious concrete were organized last week by the Connecticut Concrete Promotion Council and the Northern New England Concrete Promotion Council in Hartford, CT, and Manchester, NH, respectively. The intent of the workshops was to disseminate current technical information on pervious concrete. Matt Offenberg with WR Grace covered testing standards and specifications for pervious concrete. David Mitchell with Bunyan Industries covered construction methods and various innovations in pervious concrete mixtures and installation procedures. Colin Lobo with NRMCA covered concepts on proportioning pervious concrete mixtures and demonstrated the NRMCA software for this purpose.
Jim Langlois and Jon Kuell with the sponsoring organizations indicated that the 40 and 60 attendees at each event gained a lot of information from these workshops.
