Hello, everyone.
This is Enta.
This sweltering heat just keeps on going, doesn't it?
The air-conditioned suit doesn't work at all; it's much more comfortable to take it off and wear long sleeves instead.
Wait until the temperature drops a bit before wearing your air-conditioned suit!
But that's beside the point.
Cement Milk hardens super fast, doesn't it?!
Amid a heat wave with temperatures exceeding 35°C,
"The pump is clogged."
"It solidified inside the hose."
"It won't come out of the hose."
Isn't that just hell?
If this happens at this time of year, it’ll harden all at once and I’ll have to throw the hose away...
Do you take any measures in situations like this?
Even among craftsmen, there are some who occasionally add water to make the mixture looser.
That’s the one thing I really want you to avoid at all costs. (Don’t do it!)
It's always the people who say things like that who end up just adding water haphazardly.
Well, when it's this hot, the water gets hot too, so some of it does evaporate.
But if we add water here, what about quality control?
That's what you'd think, right?
So, here's what to do!
1. Create shadows with plants!
It's going to be quite a change!!?
It will make things a lot easier for the people doing the work.
This is the biggest selling point.
It's a surefire hit in the summer.
2. Use a curing retarder (FT700).
I think this is another surprisingly surefire choice.
If you use this, it really doesn't harden.
Since it's fine to leave it alone for a while, I'll just mix up a bunch and let it sit lol
If the design includes Seekasem (formerly Masterlock & Leobild), let's change it!
To Improve Quality!!
It’s fine to get creative, but since I think it’ll make a difference financially, it would be best to make the change if possible ^^
The curing start time is a rough estimate, but it's more than three times as long.
If you add as much as 2%, it won't harden for 5 hours lol
However, please rest assured that the strength after curing is no different from that of standard high-performance water-reducing agents.
Even three days is enough—it will show up today.
Using an admixture like this makes the application process much easier.
After all, with this heat, we want to make the construction process as easy as possible, don't we?
Let's do our best to get through this!!
See you later.
