Concrete Canoe: Lightweight Aggregate and Pozzolan

ENGINEERING COMPETITIONS are all kinds of practical fun. And the long-running American Society of Civil Engineers’ Concrete Canoe Competition ranks as one of the most anticipated and successful.

At Hess Pumice, we field scores of inquiries each concrete canoe season about sourcing our lightweight pumice aggregate and natural pozzolans for concrete boat mix designs. We’ve built a Concrete Canoe-specific website loaded with information about using lightweight pumice aggregate, our recommended grades, technical data, and more. The process for ordering development samples and production aggregate are also provided on the site.
