This award provides research support under the Foundation's                     Presidential Young Investigator Awards (PYIA) program.  Current and             recently completed research includes a study of surface cracks in               concrete slabs as a function of environmental conditions and surface            finishing techniques.  Work is also in progress on corrision of                 reinforcing steel and alkali-aggregate reaction.  Plans for the                 immediate future include expansion of these projects, plus evaluation           of the porosity of concrete as a function of construction procedures.           Experimental work will be coupled with the development of an "Expert            System" as a means of packaging advanced concrete technology in a               manner accessible to the jobsite.
