Center for Cement Composite Materials

The Center for Cement Composite Materials (CCCM) is an interdisciplinary research center that develops knowledge to solve technical problems relating to portland cement and cement-based materials. The center identifies technical problems in the production and use of these materials, designs and carries out fundamental, science-based research to provide the knowledge required to solve these problems, and disseminates results of this research, both directly to center members and more broadly through the open scientific literature, education, and development of new standards. The center has research and analytical facilities available to university faculty members and to industry.

The center is closely affiliated with the Center for Advanced Cement Based Materials (ACBM), which is headquartered at Northwestern University (www.ACBM.northwestern.edu). ACBM was established in 1989 as an NSF Science and Technology Center. Since 2000, it has been a collaborative industrial research program, with approximately 25 companies participating at an annual fee ranging from $3,000 to $1,000,000, for an annual budget that exceeds $700,000.
