Mobile Concrete Technology Center: Technologies
Field demonstrations are performed using a fully equipped mobile concrete testing laboratory that can perform a wide range of concrete tests. These include conventional destructive tests as well as new and innovative nondestructive tests.
Examples of these capabilities are:
Conventional QC Tests:
- Temperature, slump, air content, unit weight
- Strength (compression, flexural, splitting tensile)
- Elastic Modulus and Poisson's Ratio
Nondestructive and In Situ Tests:
- Dowel Bar Alignment
- Pavement Thickness
- Ultrasonic Tomography
- Hand held Ground Penetrating Radar
- Capillary Pressure Sensing System
- Pull Out Strength
- Tensile Bond Strength
- Maturity Testing
- Match Curing
Durability Related Tests:
- Box Test
- V-Kelly
- Calorimeter
- Phoenix Test
- Microwave Water Content
- Coefficient of Thermal Expansion
- Rapid Chloride Permeability
