CP Tech Center Publishes Technical Briefs on Concrete Research

The National Concrete Pavement Technology Center has recently published technical briefs that highlight the use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) and blended cement in concrete pavement mixtures. 

• Blended Cements for Next Generation Paving
• Integrating Alternative Supplementary Cementitious Materials into Next Generation Paving

These are some case studies of innovative projects built in the past 10 years that include SCMs, blended cements and/or recycled materials:

• Concrete Pavement Test Sections with Optimized Aggregate Mixtures and Portland-Limestone Cement in Minnesota
• Concrete Pavement with Portland-Limestone Cement, Coal Ash, Optimized Aggregate Gradations and Recycled Concrete Aggregate in Colorado
• Concrete Pavement with Optimized Aggregate Gradation, Coal Ash and Slag Cement in Illinois
• Concrete Paving Mixture with Slag Cement and Recycled Aggregate in the City of Seattle

The Fall NC2 Conference is scheduled for September 9 - 11 in Springfield, MA; register here by September 4. Visit the website of the CP Tech Center for more information.
