Project description

The main objectives of this project are: to measure in-place temperatures for some mass concrete members under construction; to develop an ALDOT procedure to designate various members as mass concrete members; to develop temperature control requirements for mass concrete construction for ALDOT; and to provide training to the ALDOT personnel in order to understand & implement temperature control requirements for mass concrete construction.
