In this episode of the Concrete Logic Podcast, Seth and Joe Shetterley discuss the innovative technology of liquid fly ash (LFA) and its implications for the concrete industry. Joe explains the differences between traditional fly ash and LFA, highlighting the challenges faced with conventional supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) and the importance of water management in concrete mixes. The conversation delves into the testing and implementation of LFA, its benefits in stabilizing concrete properties, and the future of concrete materials, emphasizing the role of nanoparticles in enhancing performance.
Takeaways
• Liquid fly ash is a new technology aimed at improving concrete performance.
• Traditional fly ash has quality issues that LFA seeks to address.
• Water management is crucial for the success of concrete mixes.
• Testing is essential to determine the right mix of LFA and traditional SCMs.
• The concrete industry needs to adapt to new materials and methods.
• Nanoparticles are becoming increasingly important in concrete technology.
• Chemicals in concrete mixes can lead to more problems than solutions.
• The future of concrete may rely on innovative materials like LFA and nanoparticles.
