The Solution
Typical concrete studies performed by major consultancies and concrete suppliers typically take 3-4 months to perform. With ALICE, this developer was able to complete the study in an afternoon. The company entered plans for its building, along with costs and curing times for both quick-set and traditional concrete, and then analyzed and explored results with ALICE.

The Results
Via ALICE, the developer determined that it would be able to complete its project 50 days faster using quick-set concrete, decreasing total build time from 176 days to 126 days and enabling the contractor to deploy crews on other projects sooner. And even though the quick-set concrete was more expensive, ALICE calculated that this choice would reduce project costs by 3.5%.
