Local conditions
Built for Albuquerque.
High-desert concrete has its own problems. Here's how we plan around them.
Ground
Sand to caliche
Metro soils run from loose, collapse-prone sand to hard caliche. We compact and moisture-condition the subgrade and set a proper gravel base so the slab has something solid to sit on.
Sun & heat
Summer pours
Hot afternoons make concrete set fast and dry unevenly. We pour early, keep the surface from drying too quickly, and cure it properly so it reaches full strength.
Freeze & thaw
Winter nights
Nights drop below freezing through the winter. Outdoor slabs get an air-entrained mix and sealer so water in the surface can't pop it apart.
