Insulated Concrete Form Foundations Vs. Poured Concrete Foundation
Properly Placing The Concrete
Depend­ing on the forms’ size and the con­crete core width, the con­crete aggre­gate size and slump should be adjust­ed accord­ing­ly. The ulti­mate goal is to get the cor­rect com­pres­sive strength for the con­crete as spec­i­fied.

What is the Concrete Temperature Limit?
Con­crete is a ver­sa­tile and durable con­struc­tion mate­r­i­al that is pre­dom­i­nant­ly used in both com­mer­cial and res­i­den­tial struc­tures. It’s essen­tial to under­stand con­crete’s ther­mal prop­er­ties, specif­i­cal­ly its tem­per­a­ture lim­its, to opti­mize its strength and dura­bil­i­ty.
Does Concrete Mix Really Matter?
Prop­er con­crete mix saves time on labor, facil­i­tates con­crete con­sol­i­da­tion and ensures a suc­cess­ful Fox Blocks wall pour.
