A national remedy for infrastructure
decay.
Traditionally, strength has been the deciding factor when specifying
concrete. Today, however, engineers, architects and builders are rethinking this position.
A quick review of the nation's decaying infrastructure tells us that strength alone is not

concrete, no matter how strong it may be.
Through extensive research and thousands of field performance tests
around the country, it has been shown that Type K Expansive Cement offers a solution to
these costly problems. When properly used, Type K will minimize cracking and curling and
will add greater durability to any project.
