Asian Paints, one of Asia’s construction solutions companies, has unveiled a breakthrough innovation for the regional ...

Low temperatures and cold weather conditions are known to slow down the curing of concrete, leading to the disruption of production schedules. The use of accelerating admixtures, or accelerators ...

"Since the major contribution of GGBS to the binding effect of the cement phase is through hydration, GGBS concretes are sensitive to inadequate curing at early ages because of this slow rate of ...

Cold temperatures slow the speed of concrete curing, causing cost increases and schedule delays. Wacker Neuson hydronic heaters accelerate the cure rate by raising the concrete temperature to an ...

The cure must be done between 16 and 27°C (60 and 81°F) for concrete with specified strength less than 40 MPa (5800 psi) and between 20 and 26°C (68 and 79°F) for those with greater strength ...

The American Concrete Institute released a new publication: ACI 308R-16 Guide to External Curing of Concrete. This guide reviews and describes practices, procedures, materials, and monitoring methods ...

After coming up with a recipe for lower-carbon, faster-curing concrete that met its needs, Meta went on to use it for the concrete slab in one of the data center buildings at Meta's Rosemount, MN ...

Researchers at the University of Bath in the UK are working on a self-healing concrete that uses bacteria to seal the cracks that lead to decay.

Concrete repairs on the Liberty Memorial Bridge were complete on Wednesday, but officials have not set a specific day the bridge will reopen. The bridge was closed Feb. 15 after inspectors ...

"With regard to curing, at normal replacements levels - where about 7% of the cement is replaced by CSF - the resulting concrete may be treated in the same way as portland cement concrete, but if ...
