Water on top of Concrete
Water on top of Concrete
(OP)
Got a call from the owners rep on a project this morning. They were casting a concrete beam last week. The forms were a few inches taller than the top of concrete.
Apparently there was so much 'bleed water' collecting on top of the concrete that they were removing it with cups. They pulled the side forms today and the concrete looks 'funny'.
I have never heard of this happening before. Has anyone else? I am making them takes cores for strength.
