Advantages to Concrete Curing Testing in Toronto, ON

Based on a guidelines set out by ACI Committee 308, curing refers to "the process by which hydraulic-cement concrete matures and develops hardened properties over time." How the concrete cures and the accuracy of the tests will go a long way in the success of your project. By using a Darwin Chambers concrete curing box in Toronto, ON, you can test to verify that your concrete:

• Won't degrade and have fissures, also called crazing
• Has the necessary strength
• Has the required water tightness
• Is impervious to erosion
• Has better volume stability
• Is resistant to freezing and thawing

While the workers who prepare the concrete test cylinders and the Toronto, ON lab the test is sent to will be responsible for a substantial portion of the accuracy of the testing, their readings will be for naught if the reliability of the sample is endangered because of a poor concrete curing box. You need to know the exact temperature and humidity under which the samples were kept. That's why every Darwin Chambers portable concrete curing box has a control resolution of 1°F. Other specifications are:

• On job site protected storage of concrete test specimens and dependable heating
• Comes with comfort grip no-crush handles for easy carrying
• No need to open to see temperature reading or set point of thermostat
• The plate is thermally protected from overheating
• Digital controls
• Measuring resolution: 0.5°F
• Control setpoint: 73°F
• Data storage
• Xtreme technology uses an insulated lid and extra insulation in the walls
• EZ-Clean top wipes clean and the lead-resistant channel drain makes it easy to empty any excess water without tilting the cooler
• Eco-friendly manufacturing because of reduced carbon emissions
• Made in the USA

How to Take Concrete Curing Samples in the Field in Toronto, ON

ASTM and ACI have stringent regulations for how to produce samples and what humidity and temperature to store them at. To make sure you are obeying regulations, you must follow a certain procedure:

• The procedure must be performed by an ACI-Certified Grade 1 Concrete Field Technician.
• The concrete cylinder must be representative of the concrete poured on-site, made up of at least two samples.
• The technician must make not of the temperature of the ambient air and the concrete.
• You must carry out a slump test and an air test.
• The specimens must be kept in a concrete curing box where they are kept at a fixed temperature range between 60°F and 80°F.

Once you have a concrete sample, you must maintain it in a concrete curing box until you can conduct in-field tests and send samples to a lab in Toronto, ON to measure 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 concrete can withstand.
