Purebase provides its blended supplementary cementitious material to UC Davis Pavement Research Center for concrete test track
Purebase (OTCQB: PUBC) has announced that its blended metakaolin supplementary cementitious material will be used in UC Davis Pavement Research Center's (UCPRC) upcoming concrete pavement test track in 2024. This is part of UCPRC's Sustainable Concrete Lab-to-Slab Initiative, which aims to evaluate low-carbon cements and supplementary cementitious materials beyond traditional options.
The initiative, supported by organizations like ACI, Caltrans, and FHWA's SPPCC, will construct three successive slabs using novel sustainable materials. Each test section requires approximately 2.5 cubic yards of concrete. The project aims to generate insights into the viability of these materials for real-world applications.
Purebase CEO Scott Dockter stated that successful testing could lead to widespread implementation of their SCM in substantial construction projects across California, supporting the company's goal of decarbonizing the state and eventually the nation.

Purebase (OTCQB: PUBC)는 자사의 혼합 메타카올린 보조 시멘트 재료가 2024년 UC 데이비스 포장 연구 센터(UCPRC)의 다가오는 콘크리트 포장 시험 트랙에 사용될 것이라고 발표했습니다. 이는 UCPRC의 지속 가능한 콘크리트 실험실에서 포장까지의 이니셔티브의 일환으로, 기존 옵션을 넘어 저탄소 시멘트와 보조 시멘트 재료를 평가하는 것을 목표로 합니다.
ACI, Caltrans 및 FHWA의 SPPCC와 같은 조직의 지원을 받는 이 이니셔티브는 새로운 지속 가능한 재료를 사용하여 세 개의 연속 슬래브를 건설할 것입니다. 각 테스트 섹션에는 약 2.5입방 야드의 콘크리트가 필요합니다. 이 프로젝트는 이러한 재료의 실제 적용 가능성에 대한 통찰력을 생성하는 것을 목표로 하고 있습니다.
Purebase의 CEO인 Scott Dockter는 성공적인 테스트가 그들의 SCM이 캘리포니아 전역의 대규모 건설 프로젝트에 널리 적용될 수 있는 길을 열어줄 수 있으며, 이는 주와 궁극적으로 국가의 탈탄소화 목표를 지원한다고 밝혔습니다.

Cela fait partie de l'Initiative de béton durable du laboratoire à la dalle de l'UCPRC, qui vise à évaluer des ciments à faible carbone et des matériaux cimentaires complémentaires au-delà des options traditionnelles.
L'initiative, soutenue par des organisations telles que l'ACI, Caltrans et le SPPCC de la FHWA, construira trois dalles successives à partir de matériaux durables innovants. Chaque section de test nécessite environ 2,5 mètres cubes de béton. Le projet vise à générer des informations sur la viabilité de ces matériaux pour des applications dans le monde réel.
Le PDG de Purebase, Scott Dockter, a déclaré que des tests réussis pourraient conduire à la mise en œuvre généralisée de leur SCM dans des projets de construction importants en Californie, soutenant ainsi l'objectif de l'entreprise de décarboniser l'État et éventuellement la nation.
Purebase (OTCQB: PUBC) hat angekündigt, dass sein gemischtes Metakaolin-Baustoffmaterial im kommenden Teststreckenprojekt des UC Davis Pavement Research Center (UCPRC) für Betonpavements im Jahr 2024 verwendet wird. Dies ist Teil der Nachhaltigkeitsinitiative von Labor zu Platten für nachhaltigen Beton des UCPRC, die darauf abzielt, kohlenstoffarme Zemente und ergänzende Baustoffmaterialien über traditionelle Optionen hinaus zu bewerten.
Die Initiative, die von Organisationen wie ACI, Caltrans und FHWA's SPPCC unterstützt wird, wird drei aufeinanderfolgende Platten unter Verwendung neuartiger nachhaltiger Materialien bauen. Jeder Testabschnitt benötigt ungefähr 2,5 Kubikmeter Beton. Das Projekt hat zum Ziel, Erkenntnisse über die Machbarkeit dieser Materialien für reale Anwendungen zu gewinnen.

- Purebase's SCM will be used in a high-profile concrete test track by UC Davis Pavement Research Center
- Potential for widespread implementation in California construction projects if testing is successful
- Alignment with sustainability initiatives in the construction industry
- Success of the SCM in the test track is not guaranteed
- Widespread implementation depends on positive test results
IONE, CA, Aug. 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Purebase Corporation (OTCQB: PUBC), a natural resource development company headquartered in Ione, California, is pleased to announce that the UC Davis Pavement Research Center (UCPRC) will be utilizing Purebase’s blended metakaolin supplementary cementitious material in its upcoming concrete pavement test track this summer or early fall 2024.
UCPRC launched the Sustainable Concrete Lab-to-Slab Initiative, focused on evaluating low-carbon cements and supplementary cementitious materials beyond the traditional coal fly ash and slag. This initiative is supported by organizations such as the American Concrete Institute (ACI), the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA)’s Sustainable Pavements Program Cooperative Center (SPPCC).
The Sustainable Concrete Lab-To-Slab Initiative aims to advance sustainable concrete technology by accelerating the implementation of more sustainable binders for structural, pavement, minor, and other concrete applications.
According to UCPRC website, the objective is to construct a series of three successive slabs, each utilizing a novel sustainable material for concrete, with a minimum requirement of approximately 2.5 cubic yards of concrete per test section. This initiative aims to generate invaluable insights at small-scale (no-traffic) test sections into the viability and efficacy of these materials for real-world applications in pilot projects and mainstream construction.
“Through prequalification testing, constructability assessment, QA/QC testing, mid-term monitoring, and environmental and cost life cycle assessment, we are dedicated to evaluating the performance of these materials and helping government and private project owners accelerate their implementation,” said the UCPRC.
“Although UC Davis has tested metrics of our SCM in the past in a lab setting, this is the next step in a project by the UCPRC where we can physically see the performance of the material in a real-life application. If testing of Purebase’s SCM is successful in the concrete pavement test slab, this will open the door for our SCM to be widely utilized and implemented in substantial construction projects across the state of California,” said Purebase CEO, Scott Dockter. “This would be a positive move for Purebase in our goal of decarbonizing California, and eventually, the nation.”
