01. Corrosion-inhibiting admixture MCI admixtures, developed, manufactured, and marketed by Cortec Corporation, consist of two functional components — contact inhibitors and volatile corrosion inhibitors, some of which are amino carboxylates. According to Cortec, they are nitrite-free and effective at very low doses. MCI Technology works by forming a protective molecular layer on steel surfaces embedded in the concrete. MCI-2005 is ideal for use in marine-environment structures because of its UL certification to meet ANSI/NSF Standard 61 for use in structures containing potable water. It also contains 67 percent USDA-certified biobased content and qualifies to earn credit toward LEED certification.

02. Large paving stones Willow Creek Paving Stones introduced Slatestone Grande to its family of paving stones. Slatestone Grande pavers are available in 9-inch by 18-inch and 14-inch by 18-inch sizes and are 7 cm thick. Four colors are available — Creme, Bleu, Patina, and Mocha. Ideally suited to the harsh freeze-thaw cycles of the Midwestern climate, they can be used for patios, courtyards, walkways, and more.

Laboratory staff can initiate and monitor tests away from the lab, and service staff can conduct remote diagnostics. A new 7-inch, high- resolution, color touch-screen is scratch and splash proof. Automatic sample loading is provided by a closed-loop microprocessor-controlled system, with automatic stress calculation. All test results are logged with the machine serial number, and load versus time is plotted in real-time.
