Hi all,

Could you please answer my query about the concreting of 500mm thick RC wall as per below information:

Query:
How long until the 500mm thick walls will not be subject to have condensation coming from the walls after concreting, as we don’t want to damage the sensitive electrical equipment within the plenum?

General information:
Thickness of the wall: 500mm thick
Size of the plenum: 23m x 16m
Height of the wall: 14m high
Concrete class: C32/40

Thank you for your answers.
 
There are tests to evaluate moisture escaping from concrete. One is ASTM F1869. Another is ASTM D4263.
 
Thank you for your response
