Question regarding concrete


Ja  Rhule

Recommended Posts

Builder just poured fresh concrete to form slab and its raining very hard here and concrete is covered with water... How bad is it?

Potentially very bad depending on how much water got mixed in with the concrete. I work for an engineering firm and one of the things we do is design concrete mixes for specific requirements. Concrete is made of the following constituents: cement, aggregates, water, and sometimes fly ash and admixtures. Each mix is specifically designed with certain amount of each to meet the design requirements. Any alteration to the original design through addition or subtraction of any of the above constituents will change the way that concrete performs.

Make sure you contact your builder immediately.

About 2-3 hours between they stop pouring concrete and monsoon like rain for 3 hours. Talked to broker and he said builder fuged up big time. My dad said they will not re pour because its just too damn expensive to take out original concrete and add new one (my house is being built by publicly traded company). They will probably settle with us (give us little money to go away) and sell this lemon to unsuspected customer.

    • Steelers fans will take over the Stadium and city   It will be unbearable  worse for me, on the west coast, resigned to the nfl network and you know it will be a steelers broadcast team.    It was ungodly bad with sheduer 2 weeks ago  Last game, tried listening  on panthers radio and  watching  on espn live last week but the delay between the 2 drove me nuts  so as bad as they were playing, found something else to do 
    • I mean I don't have a personal axe to grind with any human on the Panthers roster.  I know AT shouldn't be dominating the slot. The fact he is....is because we have a horrific front office/management.   I can part with any player.   The goal is a winning team.   the root of the AT ranting, is really just looking out for BY (people like to call me BY hater though).  A QB who was basically screwed from day 1 when we got drafted here.  I went hard at Carolina then too for setting him up to fail. Because it was obvious from the jump the setup was failure by design.  Which was true.   I said Frank bad zero sense with BY.  Miles Sandes made double zero sense.  The players they got in FA made zero sense.     Either you build a BY O.....or you move on from BY.  I have said I am cool either way.  We are in no man's land and have been there since they day we drafted him.   
    • It's the QB school guy mentality. Thielen is a shitty #1 option so aaarrrrggghhhh FUUUUUUUUUG HIM!!! This dude SUCKS!!! Yeah, Thielen should no longer be a #1 option at this stage in his career. He honestly shouldn't be a starter at this point in his career. But it's not an Adam Thielen issue that we've had to ask him to do that.
