Description
High Strength Concrete is now more frequently used in construction, with designers and contractors continuing to push for higher strength and more specialized performance requirements. However, construction with high strength concrete is actually a complicated process that must be specified, designed, proportioned, placed, and tested correctly to perform as intended. This session is intended to educate viewers on the successes and challenges associated with high strength concrete construction through the use of case studies. This session will be of benefit for all parties involved with concrete construction including engineers, architects, contractors, subcontractors, design professionals, suppliers, testing agencies, and owners/building managers.
