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
FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
