Correcting for Aggregate Moisture
Q: I'm fairly new in the concrete business and I know that a mix's water-cement ratio affects how well the concrete turns out. But why should I also care about something called "aggregate moisture," and what is it? A: This is an important question because admixture dosage, workability, strength, air, and durability all depend on the mix having the right water content, …
