Understand the chemical and environmental influences that can cause concrete cracking and how to prevent this from occurring.

Because ready mixed concrete is delivered in a fluid state then subsequently becomes a solid, the chemical and environmental influences on the change may sometimes causes cracking.

It is very unusual that these cracks cause any loss of strength but they provide a negative prospective to the end users of the product. The placing and the curing of the concrete has the single biggest influence on the quality of the end product.

The following table outlines the important information regarding the cause, and control of cracking in Allied Ready Mixed Concrete.
