Precautions for Cold Weather Concreting

Extreme cold weather conditions can significantly affect the quality of concrete, as well as its mechanical properties. In cold weather concreting, one should make sure that all the negative impacts of low ambient temperature are appropriately alleviated by taking the necessary precautions. In this article, we will review important steps that can ensure you will get the quality you are looking for. But first, let’s see what cold temperature is…Read More »Precautions for Cold Weather Concreting

On Site Evaluation of Concrete Strength - FPrimeC Solutions

5 Methods for On-Site Evaluation of Concrete Strength

On-site Evaluation of Concrete Strength is a main challenge in the condition assessment of existing infrastructure, or the quality control of new construction. Owners, maintenance managers of such existing concrete structures normally prefer non-destructive and non-intrusive methods to avoid further damage to an already struggling structure. In construction projects, switching to non-destructive means less intervention, shorter down-times, and saving money. However, all parties agree that the strength of concrete is…Read More »5 Methods for On-Site Evaluation of Concrete Strength
