Advantages to Concrete Curing Testing in Miami, FL

Based on a a definition offered by ACI Committee 308, curing is "the process by which hydraulic-cement concrete matures and develops hardened properties over time." 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 Miami, FL, you can test to make sure that your concrete:

  • Won't develop crevices, technically referred to as crazing
  • Has the necessary strength
  • Has the necessary water tightness
  • Is impervious to wearing down
  • Has better volume stability
  • Is impervious to freezing and thawing

While the people who prepare the concrete test cylinders and the Miami, FL lab the test is sent to will be accountable for a large part of the accuracy of the testing, their reports will not have any value if the reliability of the sample is put at risk because of a poor concrete curing box. You need to know the exact conditions under which the specimens were kept. For that reason, every Darwin Chambers portable concrete curing box has a control resolution of 1°F. Other specifications include:

  • In-field protected storage of concrete test specimens and reliable heating
  • Comes with comfort grip no-crush handles for easy carrying
  • Exterior controls and readings so you do not have to open the box
  • No overheating
  • Digital temperature controller
  • 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 Miami, FL

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

  • The procedure must be performed by an ACI-Certified Grade 1 Concrete Field Technician.
  • The concrete cylinder must be representative of the concrete put in the slab, made up of the same concrete as it was poured.
  • The technician must record the temperature of the ambient air and the concrete.
  • You must perform a slump test and an air test.
  • The cylinders must be kept in a concrete curing box where they will not be perturbed 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 Miami, FL to test the concrete's compressive strength:

  • In-Field Test: A Schmidt hammer fires a spring-loaded mass at the concrete in order to measure the value of the rebound.
  • Laboratory Test: A compressive strength lab test will apply force to each end of the cylinder until it breaks to see how much pressure the specimen can hold up against.
