Using Accelerators and Hot Water to Protect and Cure Cold Weather Concrete

Using Accelerators and Hot Water to Protect and Cure Cold Weather Concrete

There are many times when concrete projects can’t wait for milder temperatures before beginning construction. For those working with concrete during the cold weather months, proper execution of cold weather concreting is essential. Cold weather concreting takes place when the concrete is placed somewhere that the temperature may fall below 40 degrees F. Certain steps need to be taken to protect against early freezing and thermal cracking. However, low temperature concrete that has been protected from cold weather exposure and properly cured will result in a much durable concrete with a higher ultimate strength. Accelerating admixture and hot water are the recommended combination to allow concrete to set up in a reasonable time, while keeping internal temperatures on track.
