Pre-pour notes

The Warehouse Floor Field Test being coordinated by Concrete Construction's senior editor Joe Nasvik is slated for construction this week. The 60,000-square foot slab on grade is going into a warehouse in Barlett, Ill., which has been enclosed and heated since the beginning of this year or so. Right now the schedule calls for final preparations to be made on Monday (Feb. 9) and concrete placement over the course of the following three days. More information (including photos) will follow here as the job progresses.

Joe's short article describing the project and what we expect to learn is in the February 2009 issue of Concrete Construction. We'll post a link here as soon as it's available. [Note: See links above right.]

Please feel free to comment at any time.
