Visiting the local Longo's this morning, which opened last July and it is quite rare to see this level of scaling on a #concrete curb that's just over a year old. 💡This suggests a few things: 1. The curb was likely hand-placed. Curb machine concrete typically has a lower water-to-cementitious materials ratio, making it less prone to scaling this quickly. 2. Water may have been added to the surface to aid in finishing. 3. Improper curing might have been a factor. Poor practices in placing, finishing, and curing concrete flatwork are far too common today, resulting in less durable and resilient infrastructure. We need to do better!

💡 Understanding non-structural cracking in concrete is crucial for ensuring long-term durability in construction projects. 🔍 Common causes of concrete cracking include: -> Plastic settlement and plastic shrinkage due to rapid moisture loss or temperature changes in fresh concrete. -> Long-term drying shrinkage, moisture movement, and seasonal thermal shifts. 🛠️ Additionally, surface crazing and internal expansive forces, such as reinforcement corrosion and freeze/thaw cycles, contribute to these imperfections. Addressing these factors early can significantly improve concrete performance and longevity, leading to more durable and reliable construction.

All operations within a warehouse happen on the floor, yet many ignore wear and tear and ongoing dilapidation, leading to contingent costs beyond the floor itself. Reduced operational efficiency, safety issues, and costly damage to MHE all occur. Most often, these costs are not considered versus the cost of good floor maintenance, though they can vastly exceed them. "A stitch in time, saves nine"! Good planning and maintenance of floors is an investment that will pay ongoing dividends. Becosan can enhance floor durability and resolve defects at any stage of a floor's life. Give us a call!

3wGreat project. I was part of the modernization project in 2008 to increase the spillway capacity and install the variable height OGEE spill gate. Make sure you catch some cat fish in the pond at the bottom and watch out for rattlesnakes!
