Phase II - Reducing Portland Cement Content and Improving Concrete Durability
The objectives of this research are to: (1) conduct a laboratory testing program to investigate the effects of cementitious content on the workability, strength and, durability of all classes of Florida concrete; (2) recommend implementation of the findings to achieve concrete reclassification plan for Florida concretes; and (3) recommend implementation of the findings from this study to achieve reduced cost of concrete, reduced environmental impact, and improved durability of concrete.
