Lightweight Concrete - A Tool for Accelerated Bridge Construction workshop

Words: Abigail GabbardThe Expanded Shale, Clay and Slate Institute (ESCSI) is participating in a two-part workshop "Lightweight Concrete - A Tool for Accelerated Bridge Construction" at the National Accelerated Bridge Construction Conference in Miami, Florida on Dec. 3-4, 2014.

This workshop will introduce owners, designers and contractors to the potential advantages of lightweight concrete (LWC) for accelerated bridge construction. While the reduction of density is an obvious advantage of lightweight concrete, especially where large prefabricated concrete elements are being used, there are other advantages including enhanced durability, which contribute to extending the service life of the structure and delaying further inconvenience to the traveling public when future repairs or replacement would be required.
