ASTM International to Host Symposium on Cement and Concrete in Additive Construction
The objective of the symposium is to present potential test methods for additive construction which may be standardized through ASTM’s standards development process.
W. CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa., Nov. 2, 2020 - The ASTM International committees on cement (C01) and concrete and concrete aggregates (C09) are sponsoring a virtual Symposium on Standards Development for Cement and Concrete for Use in Additive Construction, December 7 - 8, 2020, to be held via WebEx.
The objective of the symposium is to present potential test methods for additive construction which may be standardized through ASTM's standards development process.
Topics for the symposium include:
• Measurements of early-age material properties (prior to initial setting),
• Measurements of hardened material properties, and
• Measurements of structural performance.
Online registration is now open. For more information or to register for the event, visit http://www.astm.org/CementDec2020Reg.
Additional technical information is available from symposium chair Scott Jones (scott.jones@nist.gov) or co-chair Eric Kreiger (Eric.L.Kreiger@usace.army.mil).

Featured Product
Model TR1 Tru-Trac
The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
