Title:	Early-Age Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Properties for Overlays
Principal Investigators:	Amanda Bordelon
University:	University of Utah
Status:	Completed
Year:	2015
Grant #:	DTRT13-G-UTC38 (MAP21)

Abstract

The main objective of this research is to perform experimental tests to determine the hardened properties of fiber-reinforced concrete as they change with time at early-ages. These properties and their function with time can be implemented into finite element modeling to improve overlay prediction at early ages.
