Examining the Required Cement Content

The objectives of this project are to determine the minimum cementitious content that can be used for Portland Cement Concrete Pavement (PCCP), Class S, and Class S(AE) concrete. The project will provide information on the performance characteristics of these mixtures and make recommendations to ARDOT for future research in this area. A number of concrete mixtures will be designed and tested to evaluate their workability, compressive strength, and durability in accordance with the 2014 AHTD Standard Specifications, Sections 501 and 802.
