Have you ever tried to harden wood by letting it dry in cement powder under a vacuum? The cellulose should absorb the cement as the wood expels its moisture. Putting it under pressure may help keep the board straight and bring fresh cut over sized closer to its final size without processing it further. I have a feeling that Starlite was made in a similar way but different chemicals.
I operate a 36 meter schwing pump truck. I keep a coffee can of sugar in the side cabinet. If it looks like the concrete starts to blow up during a poor. I dump some in the hopper before I pull my sponge back. Really helps on clean up. Sugar keeps it from getting thick and sticky.
I told a mexican contractor to put sugar in his mortar to delay the setup in hot weather. The next day they were raking all the mortar out. I guess they used too much, im a stone mason too. Baking soda makes it setup faster.
Damon Crumley it’s a Hobart mixer specified by ASTM C 305. Basically a beefed up kitchen aid mixer but we only use it for mortars and grouts, never concrete.
I had a friend in the ready mix business...he told me they kept pallets of sugar at the plant. If a mixer got caught in what would be a prolonged traffic jam on the highway (crash?) they'd load a pallet onto a pickup, get out there and load the drum with the sugar. He said it "killed" the set. He said its scary when you're trying to travel up the shoulder and way up you see your equipment rockin' side to side! The sugar breaks it up.
When baking sugar is considered a liquid ingredient to be added with the liquids instead of the dry. thus it may be interesting to reduce the water volume by the amount of sugar added this also explains the increased liquidity causing more slump.
Most of the additives come premixed and look like maple syrup. "Retarder" - is some form of sugar that is usually brownish color so you would know if you added retarder or not.
@@IntelligentConcrete Thanks for the response, I'll try that. Some people use corn starch paste with salt in it and diatomaceous earth 1:1 to get good results I'm also going to try that. They also add a bit of white/wood glue. Just adding a bunch of water and letting it dry definitely didn't work.
@@kevinishki ooooof. Keep track of them mixes!!! You might come up with the new ROMAN concrete and not know it or forget the formula. Keep meticulous detail for Formulator. “More data equals better science.” DWH
Howdy Stephen. Yes, adding sugar can lead to a stronger concrete. This is ultimately caused by a higher degree of cement that has dissolved and then reacted with available water. Bear in mind that if too much sugar is used, you can put the concrete to sleep and strength development can be delayed for long periods of time or not completely develop.
The sugar reacts as a water retention additive as well as a retarder, we use a high amounts of granular sugar in the mill process for Type-S Mortar, clinker + limestone + milling aid additives + sugar
@@FranciscoGarcia-lv7mj Hello Francisco...as you know ...we have to distinguish between " Cement" and "Concrete"....

U, sir, have been doing ancient concrete research! Haha me too. Theres granite powder and quartz crystal powder and ground glass powder, all those in aggregate size chunks too. Theres synthetic fiber additives to give strength like straw bricks, but wont rot and fire resistant, fiberglass fibers, plastic fibers, some people r figuring out how to add graphene!

Dr Sir, Can you please guide me that what chemicle is added to cement concreate dry mixture so that the mixture expands in volume when added with water. It is some powder which reacts and causes the mixture to expand. I know about foam, I shall be obliged. Thanks. Stay Blessed. RGDS
@@IntelligentConcrete can you please tell me generic name of the chemical which causes expansion in cement water. This is generally use in light weight concreate in replacement of foaming agent. It is some aluminium based powder!!

Isn't plasticizer also a replacement for water. Cause less water is better when mixing concrete. I do believe when one adds more plasticizer one needs to also decrease the amount of water one is using.
Can you help suggesting a form of avoid capilarity on mortars? A sort of cutting edge to ascending water that way. Thank you from Ibiza. What about ants after working with sugar?
Salt has been added to concrete a lot in the past as sodium is a cheap and powerful accelerant and antifreeze, unfortunately along with an efficacious dose of salt comes a lot of chloride, which wreaks absolute havoc on steel reinforcement and corrodes the concrete from the inside out. As far as Roman cement, the salt in the seawater used to make it is just a small part of the equation in which many other minerals in that water could be bigger contributing factors to the concrete’s durability. Not too mention our common mindedness Portland cement easily hardens underwater as well, it’s actually quite beneficial to the curing process and has always been known as such.
Unrelated to this particular video but you know your stuff so..... I keep reading that cement on its own is not very strong at all and is just a binder. But just watched a video where pure cement withstood 8000psi and concrete failed at 2500psi. So is it really weak on its own ? I'm making some concrete statuary and had two questions. Are the larger stones necessary for strength or will sand suffice . Second , I want to add some designs to my statuary by hand using pure cement as a sand mixture will not flow if I put it into a piping bag. Will using pure cement be a bad idea ? If so how do I make a sand mixture flow enough to be piped out of a bag . I just tried it and the sand compacts and does not extrude thru the nozzle . Thanks
Howdy Robert, Cement on its own is one ingredient in the concrete mixture. The ultimate strength and durability is based on the amount of water, type and amount of rock and sand, as well as chemicals. I think its always good to use a concrete (cement, rock, sand, water) as much as your mold will allow you. Using a neat cement paste often leads to shrinkage and cracking.
Don't put sugar in concrete, sugar is what destroys concrete. This like the dumbest experment ever i just don't get why someone would purposely add sugar to concrete
Thanks for the feedback Jerry. Sugars and salts have been used in concrete for a while now to slow down and accelerate concrete setting times and more.
If you have never worked with cement/concrete with look stupid. Let's say you send out 3 cement trucks to a job that is 1 hour away, and time for traffic, plus position down time at jobsite; if your base mix is unpumpable after 90 minutes you are royally screwed! Or if you are mixing right at jobsite and have large volume, it allows you to pump in one continuous load.

Sugar additive is interesting 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼. I have a question: is there a cheap cost or cheap alternative to the fiber material for fiber reinforced concrete? Is it just plane fibreglass strands?
Great point! Yes there inexpensive alternatives but bear in mind you might be sacrificing strength of the fiber, how well it bonds to the cementitious matrix, or the durability of the fiber for that price reduction.
I bought a big roll of fiberglass mesh used in repairing large drywall. Cut in strands and mix with mortar/cement or lay thicker strips for forming shapes.

So how much sugar should I add to slow the set (as much as possible) per 60lb bag of pre-mixed cement?
Start with a cup and see how that goes. It all depends on your local mix. What will work for you won’t for us in Jersey.
I told a mexican contractor to put sugar in his mortar to delay the setup in hot weather. The next day they were raking all the mortar out. I guess they used too much, im a stone mason too. Baking soda makes it setup faster.
I know it's an old post, but does having sugar have implication in bacterial growth and health concerns if/when buildings are made this way?
Could if there is an abundant of growth of the biological. There can be residual sugars left over in the concrete.
