Cold Temps?

[tomralph]

Looking to pour on Friday monring this week. The highs and lows for the weekend are:

Fri - 63 / 42
Sat - 54 / 36
Sun - 58 / 37
Mon - 61 / 39
Tues - 63 / 42

Do I need blankets for this or any special mixes in the concrete?

We are pouring 36' x 48' @ 5" thick with 4000 PSI concrete over 2" XPS foam. The workshop has 4 walls and a roof on it, but no doors (3 large openings).

Also while I have your attention, is it safe to walk on Monday during Memorial day BBQ at the house?

Finally I will be looking to place an order for some densifier and sealant in the coming days for this space. Not looking for protection from everything, just car fluids on occasion.

No freezing temperatures there, you should be fine.

I agree, it's not going to freeze, and it's not going to stay at the low temp for long anyway. It should actually make for a nice slow setup perfect for your concrete pour.
