Humboldt Concrete Air Entrainment Meter, 8L

Concrete Air Testing

Concrete air testing is crucial to ensure quality and longevity of concrete structures. By measuring air content in fresh concrete, construction professionals can determine if the right amount of entrained air is present. Entrained air is tiny, evenly distributed air bubbles intentionally introduced into the concrete mix. These air voids are necessary for improving workability of concrete and resistance to freeze thaw cycles. Using concrete air meters, also known as air entrainment meters, allows for measurement of air content to prevent issues like reduced strength or surface defects. Reliable air meters like Concrete Air Meter are must have for anyone who wants to ensure their concrete meets highest standards for durability and performance.
