The future of construction is here! The ready mixed concrete industry is developing smart concrete systems to monitor and respond to real-time conditions, including: ?Embedded sensors that detect stress, temperature, humidity and more. ?Real-time data alerts that notify construction teams about potential crack or stress points. ?Improved safety and longevity measures for important infrastructure like bridges, dams and high-rises. By catching issues early, smart concrete helps prevent costly repairs and ensures stronger, safer structures for the future! #SmartConcrete #TechInConstruction #ReadyMixInnovation #BuildingForTheFuture #InfrastructureSafety

In honor of Women's History Month, VRMCA is celebrating Emily Roebling, a pioneer in civil engineering and the first woman to earn a civil engineering degree. When her husband, Washington Roebling, the Chief Engineer during the construction of the Brooklyn Bridge, fell ill, Emily took over his duties, using her expertise to help complete the bridge in 1883. We're grateful for all our partners in our industry including civil engineers. Here's to Emily Roebling's legacy and all the incredible women who have paved the future of construction! #WomensHistoryMonth #WomenInConstruction #BuildWithStrength #Concrete #Construction
