Three dimensional image system technology is now used in a wide variety of industries, including construction, mapping, manufacturing, mining and forensics. For all of these industries, safe usage of 3D imaging equipment is a top priority. However, until the approval of a new ASTM International standard, no safety guidelines specifically oriented toward 3D image system technology existed. The…

Shrinkage that occurs during the drying process is a major cause of cracking in concrete. However, application of shrinkage-reducing admixtures in the field has been yielding positive results, and engineers have realized that admixtures can mitigate cracking. A new ASTM standard currently being developed by Subcommittee C09.23 on Chemical Admixtures will set minimum standards for an admixture to…
