Hot weather impacts hardened concrete in many ways. In addition to the potential for decreasing strength, hot weather can also decrease durability and water tightness, create a non-uniform appearance and increase the tendency for drying shrinkage. Each of these problems can be avoided through adjustments at the concrete plant and precautions at the jobsite.
