• Abstract:
  Although much progress has been made in reducing concrete’s propensity to crack, the goal remains elusive. A novel approach to this problem is the focus of “High-Performance Stress-Relaxing Cementitious Composites for Crack-Free Pavements and Transportation Structures,” an Exploratory Advanced Research (EAR) Program project launched by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in 2008 and conducted at Texas A&M University’s Texas Transportation Institute.
