Benefits of Concrete Curing Testing in Jacksonville, FL

According to a report from ACI Committee 308, curing refers to "the process by which hydraulic-cement concrete matures and develops hardened properties over time." You need to be confident that your concrete is curing properly for the best results in your project. By using a Darwin Chambers concrete curing box in Jacksonville, FL, you can test to make sure that your concrete:

  • Won't have cracks, technically called crazing
  • Has the needed strength
  • Has the needed water tightness
  • Is resistant to erosion
  • Is impervious to shrinkage, which causes cracks
  • Is resistant to freezing and thawing

While the technicians who prepare the concrete test cylinders and the Jacksonville, FL lab the test is sent to will be responsible for a considerable percentage of the accuracy of the testing, their work will mean nothing if the reliability of the sample is put at risk because of a poor concrete curing box. You need to know the exact temperature and humidity under which the specimens were kept. For that reason, we design and manufacture every concrete curing box to have a control resolution of 1°F. Other aspects are:

  • In-field protected storage of concrete test specimens and reliable heating
  • Comes with comfort grip no-crush handles for easy transport
  • Exterior controls and readings so you do not have to open the box
  • The plate is thermally protected from overheating
  • Digital controls
  • Reading resolution: 0.5°F
  • Control setpoint: 73°F
  • Data retention: Yes
  • Xtreme technology uses an insulated lid and extra insulation on the interior
  • EZ-Clean top wipes clean and the lead-resistant channel drain makes it easy to empty any excess water without tilting the cooler
  • Low CO2 insulation for reduced carbon emissions from foam manufacturing
  • Made in the United States

Correct Procedures for Concrete Curing Samples in the Field in Jacksonville, FL

ASTM and ACI have stringent regulations for how concrete samples are taken and stored in a concrete curing box. To make sure you are adhering to regulations, you must take the following steps:

  • The procedure must be conducted by an ACI-Certified Grade 1 Concrete Field Technician.
  • The concrete cylinder must be a "representative sample," made up of two different samples from the middle of the concrete load.
  • The technician must note a precise reading of the temperature of the ambient air and the specimen.
  • The technician must conduct a slump test and an air test.
  • The cylinders must be stored in a concrete curing box where they will not be disturbed and cannot exceed 80°F or go below 60°F.

In addition to the slump and air tests, you must conduct both on-site and laboratory tests in Jacksonville, FL to measure 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.
  • Laboratory Test: In a lab, the concrete will be placed in a machine that places increasing amounts of pressure on each end of the sample until it cracks or breaks.
