Optimum humidity for the production of
concrete elements
Humidity plays an important role in the production of concrete components for achieving the best results. Is the air too dry, it leads to an excessive evaporation of water above the fresh concrete surface. In the following article, Andrej Arnold (Condair) gives more detailed information on the possibilities of modern humidifiers.
Humidity plays an important role in the production of concrete components for achieving best results. Is the air too dry in the production hall or in the curing chamber, it leads to an excessive evaporation of water above the fresh concrete surface. This can entail a number of defects. Modern humidifiers prevent this effectively, thus being a decisive factor for ensuring the concrete quality.
Concrete must have a sufficient density so as to be able to meet all requirements in terms of durability. The lower porosity and permeability are, the more resistant concrete products are to external...
