Curing is logarithmic. News stories say they are using "concrete" today.
Main point is to make an appropriate effort. Seems not too bad today, and think the storm isn't huge.
- abduhl 10y agoCan you link to a news story that says they are using concrete today? What location are they placing concrete at?
- marze 10y agoSure, the emergency spillway, but not much detail: http://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-live-updates-oroville-dam-oroville-dam-repair-work-by-the-1487177768-htmlstory.html http://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-live-updates-orov...
- abduhl 10y agoSeems like they are dropping super sacks of rock. They might be dropping super sacks of dry mix, but I highly doubt it - the money just wouldn't be there. If they're just looking to armor then the rock would more sense. Shotcrete and concrete are difficult to place via helicopter. Both need to be pumped (or hand placed) to get a good product, which can't be done via helicopter.
- crygin 10y agoI'm onsite here in Palermo! You have no idea what you're talking about and your absurd hypothetical bullshitting is actively harmful. Please don't speak on this topic again.
