Approved Concrete Sources and Products
Concrete related sources and products that are approved, qualified or certified for use on Agency projects.
Concrete Aggregates
Refer to Mn/DOT Aggregates for information acquiring a pit number.New source concrete aggregate testing requirements.
Preliminary concrete aggregate testing requirements for paving.
Concrete Mix Designs
Forms for mix designs and job mix formulas (JMF) for certified ready-mix, concrete paving and bridges.
Forms
Forms for certified ready-mix, concrete paving and bridges that are used for documenting concrete materials and testing on construction projects.
Certified Ready-Mix Program
Mn/DOT has developed the Certified Ready-Mix Program for the quality control of concrete production under a Certification program for ready-mix concrete plants.
Concrete Pavements and Rehabilitation
Mn/DOT's concrete paving program currently using water/cement ratio specifications. Concrete paving references include requirements for alkali silica reactivity (ASR), concrete texture specifications, historical concrete pavement data (COPES) and the concrete pavement ride information (Smoothness).
Mn/DOT has developed the concrete pavement rehabilitation (CPR) program using techniques that were developed in the mid-1980's and have evolved over time. Included are guidelines, CPR details and specifications.
NEW - Mn/DOT's new policy for sealing joints is based on the type of material below the concrete pavement. See the new Joint Sealing Recommendation Guidelines for additional information.
