This project consisted of 8” RCC for a tractor trailer parking. The layout was oblong in shape, which did not make it ideal for RCC. However, RCC was selected for this project because of the cost savings over PIP with wire. This project was done in twelve day despite being told it would take twenty.  The cement (low alkaline because of VDOT specs) came from Newport News, which is located two hours away from the project site that was located in Richmond, VA.
