Hot Weather Concrete Construction When the temperature of freshly mixed concrete approaches approximately 77 degrees Fahrenheit adverse site conditions can impact the quality of concrete. Ambient temperatures above 90 degrees Fahrenheit and the lack of a protected environment for concrete placement and finishing (enclosed building) can contribute to difficulty in producing ...
Cold Weather concreting WHAT is Cold Weather? Cold weather is defined as a period when the average daily temperature falls below 40°F [4°C] for more than three successive days. These conditions warrant special precautions when placing, finishing, curing and protecting concrete against the effects of cold weather. Since weather conditions can change rapidly ...
Doubt Point 1. A 10m thick bed of sand is underlain by a layer of clay 6m thick. The water table that was originally at ground level is lowered by drainage to a depth of 4m, whereupon the degree of saturation above lowered water reduces to 20%. Determine the increase in effective pressure at mid of clay layer due to water table lowering. Given saturated densities of sand ...
