About

Adam Browne – Owner & Concrete Consultant

With over 24 years of specialized experience in concrete materials and transportation infrastructure, I’ve served as a trusted technical advisor at the highest levels of public works and construction.

From 2001 to 2025, I held progressive roles at the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT), including:

  • Assistant State Materials Engineer – Laboratory Operations (2019–2025)
    Oversaw six construction materials labs, provided expert support to engineers and contractors, and ensured technical compliance across the state.
  • Concrete Field Engineer – Materials Division (2006–2015)
    Served as MDOT’s primary concrete specialist, authored key specifications, and created the state’s first online mix submittal system — cutting review time by 66%.

In 2025, I founded Browne Enterprises, LLC to offer independent consulting services focused on:

  • Concrete mixture design & specification compliance
  • Durability evaluation (ASR, sulfate resistance, cracking)
  • Forensic analysis of construction records and material performance
  • Quality assurance and construction oversight
  • Technical training and stakeholder communication

My Approach
What I provide:

  • Clarity — making complex technical issues understandable
  • Independence — no product affiliations, no conflicts of interest
  • Experience — from lab bench to bridge deck, I’ve seen what works — and what fails

My goal is to help you make better decisions, avoid rework, and build concrete structures that perform — today and decades from now.
