  14. Slide 14: Concrete/Cement Value Proposition

    Concrete/Cement Value Proposition In Relation to Asphalt, the Leading Substitute • Historically initial costs per construction mile have favored asphalt over concrete • Asphalt is used over 85% of the time in US highway and road construction, and this has been the case over many decades • Life cycle

  18. Slide 18: Concrete Share Has, In Fact, Been Growing

    Concrete Share Has, In Fact, Been Growing Growth Since 2008 Has Been Masked by the Recession Concrete Share of Highway Paving Volume Source: PCA June 2012, Oman Data Systems

  19. Slide 19: Outlook and Strategic Implications

    Outlook and Strategic Implications A Game Changer for Cement and Asphalt • The price of asphalt is expected to continue to diverge from the price of concrete as oil price inflation remains higher than the cost inflation of the fuels used in producing cement (e.g., petcoke, shale gas) • High oil pric

  20. Slide 20: Projected Initial Bid Paving Costs

    PCA Projected Initial Bid Paving Costs Per Two Lane Road Mile - Urban Parity achieved in Fiscal 2009 – asphalt is an oil-based material Bid costs do not consider life-cycle costs – which further favors concrete
