Reliable in-situ strength information is critical for construction-stage decisions, yet conventional UPV–UCS correlations are typically established on companion cylinders, which may overestimate the ...

Purdue University professor Luna Lu holds the REBEL concrete strength sensing system, which her lab invented to improve estimates of in-place strength of concrete structures. As a beta product of ...

Wavelogix has announced the launch of the REBEL Concrete Strength Sensing System. The sensor’s patented technology uses piezoelectric technology and an AI-guided signal processing algorithm. The REBEL ...

New ring shear tests reveal how concrete–cement soil composite pile interfaces transfer shear loads, supporting improved ...

The practices and methods listed were compiled from information found on the DOT’s website or from a document or documents on their website. AASHTO standard specifications begin with an “M,” practices ...

Researchers have created a concrete mixture that is both stronger and capable of absorbing carbon dioxide. The best formula, ...

Many choices exist in today's market for materials to repair concrete. Manufacturers produce a variety of materials: cement-based, acrylic-modified, epoxies and other chemicals, all of which can be ...

In this video, we compare the strength of Sika fence post foam against rapid-setting concrete by installing two timber posts one with fence post foam and the other with concrete. We assess the ...

American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials’ Committee on Materials and Pavements approves Purdue-invented method as a national standard for estimating concrete strength WEST ...

Following seven years of research, approval of this Purdue-developed technique as a standard by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials is an initial step toward the ...
