Hello everyone,
If a freshly poured slab is exposed to low temperatures, frost damage is said to occur. Is there an approximate timeframe for when such damage would become visible — if it happens at all?
Currently, our slab is being poured, and outside the temperature is just a few degrees Celsius above freezing. At night, it sometimes drops to around -2°C or -3°C (28°F or 27°F).
According to the construction workers, this shouldn’t cause any problems, but I can’t quite shake my concerns.
Best regards

No problem. Strangely enough, the link just stopped working for me as well. If an admin is reading this, I have a question: May I know why I was warned? How exactly did I benefit from this link myself ... I just wanted to help. That’s why I think the reaction is a bit over the top right now.

You agreed to them, and they clearly state: no linking, no advertising. This is not up for debate!
