Description

You are invited to an Open House on 5/17/18 featuring Performance Engineered Mixture (PEM) Test Methods

What is it about: The FHWA’s Mobile Concrete Trailer (MCT) introduces agency and industry personnel to the state-of-the-art concrete technology in materials selection, mixture design, field and laboratory testing, and pavement evaluation. The MCT is visiting Colorado to introduce new test methods related to Performance Engineered Mixtures (PEM) initiative and other innovative tests related to concrete materials and construction relevant to field performance.

What does it involve: Demonstration and interactive opportunities for the new PEM test methods such as:

  • Super Air Meter (SAM) - Cutting edge technology to measure air void characteristics of concrete

  • Surface Resistivity - Rapid measurement to indicate permeability of concrete

  • Box Test - Measurement of workability

  • V-Kelly - Measurement of workability

10:00 to 10:30 Registration

10:30 to 10:40 C-470 Project Overview, Castle Rock Construction Company
