Concrete Curing room Rack System
Concrete Curing room Rack System
(OP)
My company is thinking about building a concrete curing room. I am trying to devise a mobie rack system that the cylinders can be stored on in the room that can be moved out when the cylinders need to be broken.
I am trying to think of a way that this can be done without having the racks be unruley or unstable. Has anybody ever attemped something like this? Or would there be aonther way to limit the constant lifting/bending and loading onto a cart. Thanks!

Do you use rubber pads or sulfur caps?
How many cylinders do you break per day?
RE: Concrete Curing room Rack System
We typically are getting in the door between 7-900 cylinders a week and breaking about 100-120 a day.
I was thinking about using some sort of industrial bakers rack or something so that way we wont have to build anything and we can spend all of our "budget" on materials.
RE: Concrete Curing room Rack System
two reasons:
1) these 6 can easily be kept moist under damp burlap while the others are being broken.
2) If you have ever seen what one cylinder dropped from 4 feet (1.3 meters give or take) can do to a human body you can imagine what 40 ot 50 would do it these carts were to topple.
As the guy that had to break 120-200/day, the hand cart worked well (after it was fitted with baloon tires.)
