Course Name: | Proper Concrete Finishing for Exterior Flatwork |
Course Outline & Objectives: | Durability including abrasion and scale resistance of exterior flatwork is dependent on proper finishing. Of course, flatwork exposed to Utah winters also requires specifying, placing and curing an appropriate concrete mixture. In this presentation we?ll discuss: minimum requirements for scale resistant concrete, proper timing and finishing steps, bleeding, window of finishability, premature finishing, adding water during finishing, and other common finishing mistakes that reduce the abrasion and scale resistance of exterior flatwork.
Learning Objectives:
After this presentation, you?ll be able to:
? Specify durable and code compliant concrete mixtures
? Deal with changing windows of finishability
? Identify improper finishing techniques for exterior flatwork
? Troubleshoot common surface defects related to finishing
