Inline Under Water Air Shut-Off Valves Underwater valves are designed to prevent water from mixing with concrete in under water concrete placing operations. Valves are simple in design, eliminating sliding, rotating, swinging and plunging parts and can be used in vertical and horizontal positions. Valves operate with low pressure, sealing around solid objects, and closing…
Using compressed air to clean concrete form and mill scale Questions: Section 1926.302(b)(4) provides that "compressed air shall not be used for cleaning purposes except where reduced to less than 30 p.s.i. and then only with effective chip guarding and personal protective equipment which meets the requirements of subpart E of this part.

There are adapter sets available at big box stores that connect a hose to PVC pipe. Depending on the type of soil, this process should be faster than just using PVC pipe alone. No matter which method you choose, digging a hole under a sidewalk for drain pipe
2 · Air bubbles trapped in a cement mixture can cause pits, or pockets, in the finished concrete project. Air bubbles are caused by air becoming trapped below coarse sediment within the cement mixture. To prevent pits, or pockets, the air must be released from beneath the sediment and allowed to float to the surface.
A concrete floor is an excellent solution for a high performing home. But to make the most of the thermal mass benefits of concrete, the slab and foundation should be insulated from both the ground and the air. Check out the podcast episode and please feel free
Next, you''ll want to think about hose length. For a workshop, where the compressor and air tool(s) are kept close together and do not require extra reach, consider a 25'' or 50'' air hose. If you''re a contractor on the construction site, 50'' to 100'' hoses typically work out

Let all the free-flowing concrete run out of the open end of the line by lifting the line, then bend the hose or tap on the pipeline in the area of the jam and shake out loose particles. Important safety tip : When trying to clear a line blockage, NEVER use compressed air.
There are several methods to carry out underwater concreting such as tremie method, pumping methods, preplaced aggregate concrete etc. which are described. The underwater concreting techniques designed mostly to prevent cement washout. These methods did
2008/3/21· Safewalls'' homes are all concrete, also constructed with handset aluminum forms, approximately 2000 square feet, and sell for under $150,000. They include 6-inch-thick exterior walls with inside insulation, 9-foot-high ceilings, high-quality impact-resistant windows, upgraded roofing systems to resist 146-mph winds, appliances, and wood or stucco exterior siding.

Tremie concrete Methods for placing high quality concrete under water BY W. MALISCH Tremies can be used to place concrete under water for caisson seals, …
How to Fix Leaking Pipes Under a Slab Foundation. If you have a leaking pipe underneath your foundation, it is either a water or sewer line. Repairing the damaged line is not that

Connect a garden hose to a piece of 1/2 inch steel pipe that is a minimum of 6 inches longer than the obstacle that your are trying to bore under. Note: The hole made by the water pressure will be much larger than the 1/2 inch pipe.
One of the biggest air leaks in a house is where the wood meets the concrete In previous episodes, we installed wall sheathing and taped the seams between the panels. This episode focuses on another super-important place to detail the air barrier: where the walls meet the foundation.
Why is it so important to insulate a concrete floor slab and what is the best way to insulate both under the floor and the edges of the slab? Up to 80% of heat loss in a floor slab occurs around the edges UPDATE: Check out this article for a list of slab edge insulation solutions, and episode 125 for my interview with Henry Edney of MAXRaft.

Problem: You’ve got concrete where you don’t want it, or you’ve got a coating on concrete that’s failed and you need to get it off.. Solution: High-pressure water jetting can be used for a wide range of concrete appliions. A high flow high-pressure water jet can cut
