Abstract:Using the maturity to determine concrete strength has been done for more than four decades. The concept was originally conceived in the late 1940s and early 1950s. More and more state and municipal DOTs are implementing its use every year, with some having used this technology as early as the mid-1980s. There are many proven benefits for the use of this method, as it is a relatively simple and reliable approach for estimating in place strength. This project piloted the use of the maturity method on current construction projects in Louisiana and reviewed literature and specification from other departments around the country.
