Mobile Concrete Technology Center: Activities
The current focus of the MCTC includes assisting agencies in implementation of the Performance Engineering Mixture (PEM) Specifications, Quality Assurance, Performance-Related Specifications (PRS), nondestructive testing, long life pavements, durability, and sustainability. An active partnership with manufacturers, contractors, industry associations, and academia is central to all of the MCTC's activities.
