The first trials of the specimen cutting for the CTC project were carried out with success. These trial specimens were meant to try the cutting procedure before using the real CTC specimens.
On July 4th, the first series of specimens cast according to the recommendation of RILEM TC-CTC "Chloride threshold concentration" were cast by the PhD members of the team. The overall result did not showed any problems regarding to the mix design or the casting procedure. Any researcher or research lab interested in this Rilem committee is welcome to contact any of the team members for discussion about the mix design or the future work. Until next time,
