Abstract:
Having spent more than a decade studying and working under Mike Thomas, I can speak for many former graduate students that the highlight of everyone’s summer was annual trips to Treat Island. Treat Island is one of many concrete exposure sites that Mike Thomas had helped maintain and develop. The site is world renown as one of harshest concrete environments in world being exposed to the highest tides in the world and upwards of 150 freeze-thaw per annum. This presentation will highlight current, past, and future research on the site, and focus on Mike Thomas’ contribution to the durability performance of concrete exposed to harsh marine exposure sites.
