Admixtures for Concrete
Course number
CE-02-113
PDH credits
2
Admixtures for Concrete Admixtures are ingredients other than water, aggregate and Portland cement that are added to a concrete mixture immediately prior to or during mixing. These ingredients can be used to modify the properties of concrete by affecting its workability and set time, compensating for the effects of temperature during curing, ensuring the quality…

The information supplied in this course and is based on established and emerging U.S. practices and recent research. Selection and…
Design and Construction of Concrete Overlay
Course number
CE-02-111
PDH credits
13
Design and Construction of Concrete Overlay State Highway Departments and local street and road agencies are currently faced with aging highway systems and a need to extend the life of some of the pavements.
