A Brief Guide to Maintaining Your Concrete Blocks

Time: October 31th,2022  |  Source: HF Machinery

1,Definition of concrete blocks

A concrete block is a building block made of cement and aggregate. Concrete blocks are used in construction, for example as a formwork for reinforced concrete or as the structural element in post-and-beam structures.

2,How to Care Your Concrete Blocks

Concrete brick curing process:

After the concrete blocks are transported to the maintenance site for stacking, wait for the strength of the concrete blocks to increase. 

Usually, watering is not required on the first day, because the cement of the concrete blocks is easily washed away. 

If it is maintained in the open field, it is best to cover it with straw curtains or plastic. 

The membrane remains moist.

After 6-8 hours or the next day, when the strength of the concrete blocks is sufficient, the blocks slabs are separated and the blocks are stacked, 

and watering and maintenance can be started. 

There is no time limit in the open field, mainly to keep the bricks moist, 

usually 2-3 times, for at least 7-10 days, the curing strength of concrete blocks can reach about 70%. 

The state stipulates that curing is required for 28 days, but usually it will be sold in 7-10 days. 

So you need to keep the blocks moist all the time.
