Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Assume you have two concrete samples. Sample A has a penetration depth of 3mm, while Sample B has 10mm. Discuss the longevity implications of each concerning exposure to wet conditions.

💡 Hint: Consider how moisture can affect strength and integrity over time.

Question 2

You conduct a water permeability test and find that the results show higher permeability than expected due to improper curing. How would you adjust your mix design for future samples?

💡 Hint: Think about the key factors that affect permeability.
