FAQ

Yes! Concret is porous.

It’s a fact often overlooked by many that concrete is, in fact, porous. These pores can make up 12 to 18% or even more of the material, yet they remain unseen, being far smaller in diameter than the width of a human hair.

64 bags

Usually, a standard pallet is designed to accommodate 64 bags of concrete, each weighing 50 pounds. However, the precise number of bags can vary based on factors including the size of the bags, the packaging arrangement, and the dimensions of the pallet.

45bags 80-pound

How much concrete is in a yard of concrete?
To create one yard of concrete, you will require approximately 45 bags that weigh 80 pounds each (or 90 bags that weigh 40 pounds each).

30 days around

Full curing of concrete typically occurs within 24 to 48 hours.
Nonetheless, it will take a considerable amount of time for recently poured concrete to dry completely and reach the full strength typical of concrete. For the concrete to reach this point of maturity, a curing period of approximately 30 days is required.

Sure !

Concrete can be poured over existing concrete provided it is done correctly. However, when using the old concrete as the base for a new pour, it must be stable and sound.

A concrete mixture is a precise combination of water, cement, and aggregates, tailored to provide the concrete with the optimal strength and characteristics for its intended use.

Rainwater can disrupt this balance, damaging the consistency and properties of the concrete, and reducing its ultimate strength. Such conditions can lead to a weaker structure and an unsatisfactory surface finish.

Therefore, it is crucial to prevent rainwater from mixing with the concrete mixture whenever possible.

1. Remove any pre-existing sealant from the floor’s surface.
2. Apply an etching solution to prepare the concrete for sealing.
3. Apply a first layer of sealer evenly using a sprayer or a roller.
4. Allow the initial sealer layer to dry completely.
5. Apply a second layer of sealer, ensuring it’s applied perpendicular to the first layer.
6. Do not apply any pressure on the sealer until it has dried fully.

A concrete float is an implement utilized to achieve a smooth finish on a concrete surface. It is employed after the surface has been leveled with a screed. Not only does floating help to eliminate surface irregularities, but it also compacts the concrete in preparation for subsequent processes.

Concrete floats can be categorized into small hand tools, larger bull floats with extended handles, or power trowels (also known as power floats) equipped with engines. Typically, concrete floats are constructed from materials such as magnesium, aluminum, or wood.

A 80lb bag of material yields roughly 0.60 cubic feet.

Newhuilian concrete achieves both structural integrity and drive-on readiness within one to two hours, with a one-day strength that matches or surpasses the 28-day strength of traditional Portland cement concrete. By utilizing Newhuilian concrete products, you can expedite your project completion while ensuring long-lasting results.

Concrete is a composite substance made up of aggregates that are held together by a fluid cement, which hardens into a solid state as it cures.
It is the most commonly utilized construction material worldwide.

Concrete with High Early Strength, characterized by quick strength gain (attaining 20N/mm2 within 12 hours) and excellent wear and abrasion resistance, proves particularly beneficial for the opening or reopening of new or fully reconstructed pavements or runways, as opposed to using standard or conventional mixes.
