  In order to improve the resistance and longevity of a concrete structure, it is significant to maintain the apt temperature range. However, a higher temperature range, or a huge difference between the temperature of an interior point and the surface can result in a disaster. That is why it is significant to do concrete temperature monitoring and introduce a specification that helps keep the temperature range below the maximum limit! Let us understand the concept and the ways to do concrete temperature monitoring in detail: All about Mass concrete Mass concrete refers to any structural body which is substantially large and needs practices to cope with the heating of the surface. The construction sites that qualify as mass concrete are dams, bridges, and similar sites that produce more heat than they release, causing the rise in the temperature range. If you do not do concrete temperature monitoring or do not take the required steps to keep the rising temperature under chec...

  Paint coating is the outermost layer that protects the surface from various environmental or physical damages. So naturally, one must do this with utmost precision, as it decides the element's product performance and life span. The question here is how to figure out if the coating will stand tall on the expectations? Factors to determine the performance of paint coating Two prime factors to help determine the performance of the paint coating are: ·        Quality of paint ·        Thickness of paint coating Unlike what many believe, the thickness does not have to be high to get better protection. It only has to be enough depending upon the type of surface. You would need a coating thickness gauge to measure the thickness and then decide if it is apt to reach the quality standards that you require! Importance of coating thickness gauge in different industries Different industries use the coating thickness g...
