By measuring temperature differences in concrete you can easily increase quality and drive down costs. The thermal differential is generally the temperature difference between the inner parts, the core and the surface of concrete structures. The bigger the difference gets,…
With the trends of new technologies, come new methods. In the world of financial stability and economical prowess, corporations work on compliance and close the gap what regulations open up. Many metrics that ESG compliance requires focus on efficiency. In…
In a corporate environment major cost indicators can show how we operate production. Utility costs, for instance, pracically demonstrate how efficient the production is. In concreting situations electricity bills can go through the roof. But without proper baselines, historical data…
The strength development of concrete largely depends on materials properties of cement, water, sand and aggregates and how all of these interact in a temperature-humidity-pressure managed environment. In the construction industry, knowing how concrete develops real-time helps extremely. When to…
Method of testing. Concrete strength. Results. Time. Cost. Just a few questions we are going to find the answer now. Forwards to the table, we advise using standards first. In this case, it translates to a work-method that is easy…
The strength development of concrete largely depends on materials properties of cement, water, sand and aggregates and how all of these interact in a temperature-humidity-pressure managed environment. In the construction industry, knowing how concrete develops real-time helps extremely. When to…
The maturity method has proven to be one of the most reliable methods to estimate in-place concrete strength. Thanks to new technologies and smart maturity systems like concrete.fit or Hilti. These systems utilizes wireless temperature sensors and cloud computing, the…
In this article we will explain why it is important to validate your maturity calibration, when to do it and how to do it. Why is validating calibration important? The maturity calibration is only valid for a specific concrete mix…
To estimate the concrete strength using the maturity method, you need to make a calibration. The aim of performing a calibration is to find the relationship between time, temperature, and strength for each concrete mix design that you intend to…
