There's an App for that...

A new app just arrived to make the lives of concrete contractors - and concrete pumpers - a little easier. Designed by Holcim, this FREE weatherAPP can help contractors plan accordingly to a four-day forecast of a building site's weather conditions. Developed using methods outlined in ACI 305, the weatherAPP not only displays expected weather conditions but also calculates the evaporation rate based on wind speed, relative humidity, air temperature and concrete temperature. With this information, weatherAPP displays whether plastic shrinkage cracking is not likely, probable or most probable to occur for the conditions.

The app is available for Android, iOS devices and Blackberrys and can be downloaded from any networked device at www.weatherapp.us.
