Concrete used in Steel Frame Building Construction, vs. Concrete for Sidewalks

Sep 13, 2005 2 Replies

what are the differences between the 2 ?



information about the composition & moisture content would be useful.



thanks much !



additional questions -

  • moisture content, e.g. grams of water per kilogram of concrete, in an averagely dried specimen of structural concrete.
  • resistivity ?
  • dielectric constant ?

thanks !

? It sounds like a stange question to me. Conrete is a mixture, and there is a vast amount of mixes used. Not all sidewalk mixes are the same neither are the structural concrete mixtures. I don't think moistere content will be the main reason for use of a specificmix (water / cement ratio might be). What is the background of your question?
