What's Next When A Bad Break Happens?
Duration: 97 minutes
Consistently in industries like tilt-up construction, the concrete cylinder is misunderstood. Specified as a regular measure of quality control, their value and the importance of proper procedures are underestimated. Invariably, things can and will go wrong with a cylinder break…what happens next? Were they taken correctly, were they stored correctly? Were there enough of them for a sufficient sampling? Industry expert, Kim Basham rejoins the TCA to bring another relevant concrete technology topic that impacts your project success.
