UMaine Bridge Technology Noted in Company Profile

A profile in Mainebiz on the Richmond-based Wyman & Simpson engineering and construction company noted that the composite-concrete technology the company has been using to build lightweight, economical bridges came from the University of Maine Advanced Structures and Composites Center research and development. Company president and UMaine alumnus Doug Herman said the company used a similar but different composite technology for two recent lightweight carbon-fiber tube bridges in Auburn and Bradley.
