Abstract
CSA (calcium sulfoaluminate) cement was engineered to overcome the performance challenges of traditional portland cement while producing high early strength, allowing large reductions in lane closure time and dangerous exposure to construction personnel and the traveling public. We will look at examples from the 2,500 lane miles of pavement that have been replaced since the early 1980s, with very few failures and long-term durability.
