When to Reject Concrete
When to Reject Concrete
(OP)
Hi All,
Is there a recommended limit for rejecting plastic concrete based on temperature? I've heard many times that concrete begins to set at 90 degrees and obviously any placement which occurs above that temperature will affect the 28 day strength. The average air temperature during the day where I am located is generally between 80 and 90 degrees.
Thanks.

Did it have the proper slump when poured?
