So that it may be certain that a concrete specimen’s mechanical properties reach the strength and deflection imperatives for its intended use, concrete specimens with specific dimensions are prepared, ...

As a foundational building material, concrete must exceed quality and strength expectations. This means rigorous testing throughout the construction process. Concrete is the most commonly used ...

Although we've recently been hearing about technologies that allow for the production of stronger concrete, existing structures made of regular concrete could also use some help. That's where new ...

At its core, concrete construction hasn’t changed much. If you excavate deep enough to the core of the work, there isn’t much of a difference between the concrete contractors do today versus what was ...
