3. Warm the subgrade before placing concrete on it during cold weather. 4. Avoid placing a slab directly on polyethylene film or other vapor barriers. Use a 100-mm (4-in.) layer of compactible, drainable fill (not sand). A “crusher run” material, usually graded from 38 mm to 50 mm (1-1/2 in. to 2 in.) down to rock dust, is suitable.Case studies | Polimix
Samples treated with the finishing aid showed a significant increase in abrasion resistance, especially in the earliest stages of the test when the very top layer of the concrete is being abraded. After one minute, the treated sample showed 65 percent less wear than the control.
