MINI SESSION: High Strength Concrete: Impacts of Material Availability in a Changing World

Sunday, November 3, 2024  2:30 PM - 3:30 PM, 404

With the current landscape of embodied carbon requirements and availability of source materials constantly changing, material suppliers are facing new challenges with designing and supplying high-strength concrete. The objective of this session is to use case studies to explore the logistics of developing high-strength concrete mix designs in the evolving world of material changes and source limitations. In particular, this session will highlight the ever-changing world surrounding suppliers with the introduction of Type 1L cement, fly ash availability shortages, and low-embodied carbon requirements.

Learning Objectives:
(1) Understand the fundamentals of high strength concrete mix development;
(2) Compare available supplemental cementitious materials and their impact on the performance of high strength concrete;
(3) Identify the challenges presented by material availability and source limitations on concrete suppliers;
(4) Describe how low embodied carbon concepts can be applied with high strength concrete applications.
