Abstract:Portable spectroscopy technologies such as X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) are proposed for a rapid identification of chemical compounds or detection of certain additives or contaminants in some commonly used construction materials in Portland cement concrete, structural coatings, or pavement markings. The ability to provide fast verification in the field of material properties at the source or on the job site prior to incorporation can enhance quality assurance, and therefore alleviate potential issues after the project is complete. Hence, it has been set as the objective of this study to evaluate the efficiency of the portable devices to characterize relevant materials for acceptance and develop a methodology for applications in Louisiana.
