When the process of curing the concrete absorb water?
Water chemically reacts with the cement to form a new compound. The resulting concrete gradually reaches full strength over 28 days, but most of the strength comes in the first 3 days, so that is when most of the water is used and needed.
How big is a bag of concrete?
Usually concrete mix comes in 40, 60 or 80 pound bags.
What type of material is reinforced concrete?
Concrete is composed of cement and other cementitious materials such as fly ash and slag cement, coarse aggregate made of crushed stone, fine aggregate such as sand, water, and chemical admixtures. In reinforced concrete, steel is introduced in to the concrete. In plain concrete, no steel reinforcement is introduced. Generally tensile and compressive strength is taken by reinforced concrete and only compressive strength is taken by plain concrete
Will Water damage concrete?
Not generally. If the concrete has a sealent on it no, but if you have a massive amount of water on unsealed concrete, the concrete will absorb the water and can make it swell and possibly crack. Answer The answer given above is totally incorrect. As far as only concrete is concerned i.e. plain concrete, the effect of water seepage is very little (depending upon the grade of concrete) whereas for RCC (reinforced cement concrete) water that seeps in corrodes the reinforcement and thus reduces the life of the structure. The defects that water seepage induces in concrete are as follows: 1) induces capillary formation (due tothe detiorating characteristics of water) 2) With this capillaries the concrete starts spalling out i.e the places where capillaries are formed, with even slight amount of stress that portion comes out and exposes the steel to the atmosphere 3) Concrete has a pH of about 12 -13. Thus it also reduces the pH of the concrete when salty water or when the concrete is exposed to marshy areas. 4) Reduces the overall strength of concrete 5) Reduces durability 6) Reduces permeabitlity to further water seepage 7) Results in ageing of structures
How might society affect science when it comes to developing oil based technology?
Society depends on oil production, so science can be useful when it comes to developing an oil based technology. Planning ahead can help scientists discover and alleviate problems with oil production,

What is the strength of M-30 after 7 days?
Seven days strength of any concrete usually comes 67% of 28 day strength. So 7 day strength of M30 may be .67*30=20.10 MPa
What is strenGth of M-30 after 30 days?
Seven days strength of any concrete usually comes 67% of 28 day strength. So 7 day strength of M30 may be .67*30=20.10 MPa
Why iron metal is used in building construction?
It deals with the tension and compression of the concrete. Concrete is a really great material when in comes to compression. It has a high strength in compression but little in the way of tension. You can test this for your self. Get a small unreinforced piece of concrete and pull it apart it ( put it in tension) and it breaks fairy easily. Now, try pushing together (put it in compression) and it doesn't break anywhere near as easily, if you can break it at all. Steel is the opposite. It has more strength in tension than in compression. Putting steel bars in concrete allows you to have good strength in compression and in tension. In an easy way to understand it and get the general idea, when the reinforced concrete is under tension, the steel bars take over, and when the reinforced concrete is under compression, the concrete takes over.
What is the concrete Example of A Certain Yet Obscure on the 6 paradoxical characteristics of faith?
One concrete example of the paradoxical characteristic of faith could be the belief that one can find strength in vulnerability. This paradox suggests that by admitting our weaknesses and embracing vulnerability, we can actually find inner strength and resilience. It challenges the notion that strength comes from invulnerability, highlighting the paradoxical nature of faith.
How can you calculate the characteristic strength of concrete?
The characteristic strength of the concrete is the compressive strength of the(fck) concrete cubes of size 150 mm tested at 28 days. And compressive strength of cubes should not fall not more than 5% of this fck.
What was the Production Budget for Here Comes the Boom?
The Production Budget for Here Comes the Boom was $42,000,000.
Where does the phrase strength comes in numbers come from?
strength come in number
How big is a bag of concrete?
Usually concrete mix comes in 40, 60 or 80 pound bags.
Can concrete cement get mold in a damp basement?
Mold does not come from the concrete, it comes from mold spores that are normally in the air. Dampness faciliitate the growth of mold which comes in contact with concrete or any other material allowing mold to grow.

Do the laws for a concrete contractor Los Angeles differ from Dtroit, MI?
There is no different laws between these two cities when it comes to concrete contractor. However, there is may be some difference when it comes to city laws.
