Should I add reinforcements for my new concrete slab?

• <div><p>Whether or not you need reinforcements for your concrete slab depends on the thickness, what you’ll use the slab for, and the climate and soil conditions in your area. Adding reinforcements increases the strength and durability of your concrete slab, so it’s ideal for load-bearing slabs like driveways and home foundations. It can also help reduce the risk of cracking in extreme climates and areas that see excessive soil movement. Speak with your professional to determine if your project requires reinforcement.</p></div>

Q: When is the best time to pour concrete?

• <div><p>The best time to pour concrete is mid-afternoon when temperatures often sit between 50 and 60 degrees, and you don&rsquo;t expect rain for at least 24 to 48 hours. Avoiding direct sunlight in the peak afternoon hours can help reduce the risk of curing too quickly, as can avoiding pouring on hot summer days. Colder temperatures and rain can lead to slower curing times and weaken the concrete. If in doubt, especially if your concrete will provide structural stability, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-hire-a-concrete-contractor.htm">hire a contractor</a> to determine the best time to pour.</p></div>

Q: How long does efflorescence damage a concrete slab?

• <div><p>Efflorescence can damage a concrete slab for two to three years. After that, it resolves on its own once the surrounding salts are gone.</p></div>

Q: Does a lamppost need concrete as a base?

• <div><p>Yes, lampposts need a concrete base. The concrete base provides a stable foundation for the lamppost, which can be heavy from the weight of the light fixture and other accessories. A concrete base also provides structural support for the lamppost, keeping it from sinking into the ground or tipping over in the wind. </p></div>

Q: What salt doesn't ruin concrete?

• <div><p>While all ice melts that contain chemicals can damage concrete, some are more concrete-safe than others. Magnesium chloride and potassium chloride are both salts that can melt ice without causing corrosion. Calcium chloride also causes minimal corrosion, making it another popular choice.</p></div>
