Question
- A blended cement concrete with 30% slag is used to place a 6 foot tall column in a single pour. The temperature of the concrete is 70 degrees. Will it be within the formworks design limits of 1000 psf?
- A blended cement concrete with 45% fly ash is used to place a 9 foot tall column in a single pour at 50 degrees. Will it be within the formwork design limits of 2100 psf?
