When doing layout work there is no such thing as “good enough” or “close enough.” It should be accurate. Read Book 1 / […]
In this unit you will review grinding, rubbing, and sacking are just a few of the ways concrete masons correct defects in concrete walls, floors, and ceilings. Concrete repairs are inevitably necessary in nearly every concrete structure. Read Book 1 / Unit 13 Review “Words You Should Know” Watch the video below and answer Video Questions (If any):
Being able to calculate area, volume, and proportions is a valuable skill in the concrete industry. Calculating area allows you to estimate materials. Volume measurements help you to estimate concrete for walls, steps, and floor slabs, for example. Ratios and proportions are required for mixing ingredients properly and for understanding relationships such as heat loss

Epoxy injection is one of the most widely used methods of structural repair in the construction industry. Epoxy adhesives are the most commonly used adhesives for crack repair, and are usually used through the injection process. Epoxies offer excellent adhesion properties because of relatively low shrinkage during curing, and are also attracted molecularly to a wide variety of substances. Structural composites
