"hot" cement....Ever heard of it?
(OP)
Can somone explain to me what "hot" cement is. It has something to do with the industry, or certian compainies, using cement that was not processed correctly.
Thanks for any info on the subject. Any discussion on how the performance of the concrete is affected is also welcomed.

Hot cement can result in slump loss if the cement also has characteristic false set, but outside that, doesn't seem to have a detrimental effect.

How often does this occur in practice? Do ready-mix suppliers have quality assurance systems to check against this?

All issues such as this are good to keep in mind as basic skepticism in the quality of any construction process or material. The only way we keep the bar high is to continually question issues.

I have had concrete delivered for floors for which I had to power float the floor before I could screed it, it was setting up so fast. I am sure it effects the structural integrity of the concrete but to what extent I do not know.
