Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a concrete mix with a low slump value, analyze what adjustments could be made to improve workability without sacrificing strength. Consider the role of aggregates and admixtures in your answer.

💡 Hint: Think about how compatibility of materials influences overall workability.

Question 2

A construction site is experiencing inconsistent workability due to varying temperatures. Propose a set of adjustments that can be made to ensure consistent workability across different conditions.

💡 Hint: Focus on temperature adjustments and their impacts on setting times.
