What are the reasons the bridge foremen chooses Roadware?

1) "Safety for the driving public." Roadware repairs are ready for traffic in 10 minutes. Lane closure time is dramatically reduced.

2) "Safety for my crew." The interstate is a dangerous work environment, the quicker repairs are made, the less exposure to the hazards of working on a heavily traveled interstate.

3) "Saves a lot of money." Quick cure times, easy mixing, straight forward application, and good long term performance makes Roadware 10 Minute Concrete Mender a good value. After a few days of training, the crew was able to repair a bridge in half a day. The district saved about $1500 per bridge over conventional repair methods. No overnight lane closures are needed and crews are more productive with less equipment requirements.

Roadware 10 Minute Concrete is mixed in two quart batches and combined with 6 quarts of crushed flint sand. Mixing takes about 30 seconds.

Mixed material is poured into the spall and striked smooth with a 2x4 piece of wood. The repair is ready for I-94 traffic in 10 - 15 minutes.
