TMRC Database of State DOT ASR-Related Specifications

The DOT Specifications Database is intended to aggregate a portion of the standard specifications from all of the State DOTs to permit easy review and comparison. Development was funded by Michigan Department of Transportation's Transportation Materials Research Center (TMRC) and development work performed by Michigan Technological University.


The database is currently limited to specifications relevant to alkali-silica reactivity. It includes cement and SCM specifications for all states, and AAR/ASR potential and mitigation data for states having those specifications. Data were gathered from standard specifications documents published online. Links to state DOT standard specifications landing pages are included in the report tables.


Data is presented graphically or in tables.
