Abstract:
During construction of the North Point Pumping Statio in Milwaukee, the opportunity was taken to study several factors concerning the concrete being placed and a number of means of testing. Reported are the relationships found between site temperature near the forms, and internal concrete temperature; relationship between field and laboratory test cylinders; experience with the use of the rebound hammer; and experience with the ball penetration test of concrete consistency.
