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.

    • Very True--and I am a former HS English teacher.  
    • Not a Moore fan-but he had a few good games last year-but I want players that scare you--Renfrow's route running and intelligence, Legette's size, speed, and strength, AT's intelligence and route running, Coker's body control, strong hands, and abilty to win contested catches, and TMac's size, body control, and ability to find soft spots in zone coverages.  Horn gives them the ability to stretch the field and he plays special teams.   Moore has a nice smile and can dance.  He filled in well last season, but to get better as a team, you have to upgrade your players.  I think Moore is a bottom of the roster guy who got bumped when we drafted 2 WRs and signed a legit free agent.  Here is the thing--TMac makes us better because he is great against the zone--man?  Good luck with that.  AT's role can be reduced, and that is probably a good thing.  He can specialize in situational football. Coker?  Just getting started. XL?  Just getting started.  Drafting TMac was probably a bit of a wake up call, but XL will be better as the 2. Renfrow?  I see him splitting reps with AT--keeping both fresh and giving different looks. Horn?  Watch the safety cheat his side when he is in the game--I see a young Steve Smith type in him, but he has yet to play a game.  I hear that Morgan loves him.
