Engineering Professor Researching Unique Concrete in Salt Lake City Airport Parking Structure
Utah Valley University Civil Engineering Professor, Amanda Bordelon is part of a research initiative to investigate the unique concrete material utilized in the former Salt Lake Airport parking garage. With the opening of the new Salt Lake Airport in September 2020, this unique original parking structure was scheduled to be demolished. Before the demolition began, however, Bordelon and a team of civil engineers have been funded by the ACI (American Concrete Institute) International Foundation and Utah Department of Transportation to conduct research. The intent of the research is to determine the effectiveness of a micro-silica mixed within the concrete to prevent it from corroding over time.
