The success of your project will partially be dependent on how the concrete cures and your ability to accurately test it. By using a Darwin Chambers concrete curing box in Cincinnati, OH, you can test to verify that your concrete: Won't develop crevices, also known as crazing Has the appropriate strength Has the appropriate water tightness Is impervious to wearing down Is impervious to shrinkage, which causes cracks Is resistant to freezing and thawing While the people who prepare the concrete test cylinders and the Cincinnati, OH lab the test is sent to will be responsible for a large portion of the accuracy of the testing, their reports will be for naught if the reliability of the sample is endangered because the concrete was not stored correctly. You need to know the exact temperature and humidity under which the samples were kept. That's why we design and manufacture every concrete curing box to have a control resolution of 1°F.

The concrete cylinder must be a "representative sample," made up of at least two samples. The technician must make not of the temperature of the ambient air and the concrete. The technician must conduct a slump test and an air test. The samples must be placed in a concrete curing box where they will not be disturbed and are kept within 60°F and 80°F at all times. After the slump and air tests, you must conduct both in-field and laboratory tests in Cincinnati, OH to take a reading of the concrete's compressive strength: On-site Test: A Schmidt hammer fires a spring-loaded mass at the concrete in order to measure the value of the rebound.
