| 摘要： | This article provides an overview of the U.S. Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Mobile Concrete Laboratory (MCL), a state-of-the-art concrete testing facility on wheels. Contained within a 48-ft (15 m) trailer and pulled behind a semi-truck, the MCL is fully equipped with both new and conventional testing equipment. FHWA staffs the lab with engineers and technicians skilled in the latest techniques and technologies for testing concrete materials. Lab personnel are available to provide State highway agencies with everything from equipment evaluations and loans to classroom and field demonstrations of specific concrete technologies. The MCL has enough office space, lab workspace, and storage facilities to serve as a highly effective on-site testing facility for extended periods of time. And with its own truck-mounted generator, the MCL can operate even in the most remote areas of the country far from power lines. |
