Heat and drying
Summer brings about 52 days at 90°F or hotter, 44 of them in June–August. High temperatures speed up setting and drying, which raises the risk of plastic shrinkage cracks. For a summer pour we schedule outside the hottest part of the day and protect the slab from drying too fast. NRMCA's hot-weather guidance covers retarders, early starts and curing.[4]
Cold and freeze-thaw
Freeze-thaw is a real risk for outdoor concrete in Newton County. Concrete that is wet when it freezes, especially where deicers are used, can scale. NRMCA recommends air-entrained concrete, about 6 percent total air with ¾- to 1-inch aggregate, and a specified strength of 4,000 psi for exterior slabs exposed to freezing and deicers. We write the specified strength and air content into the estimate. Freezing lows are not only a midwinter issue here: about 17 of them fall in March–May and September–November, so spring and fall pours need a plan for cold nights too. ACI calls for cold-weather precautions when air temperatures are expected to fall below 40°F during the protection period.[2, 3]
With 51 inches of precipitation a year, we plan how fresh concrete gets covered if rain arrives during or soon after the pour, and slope the finished slab to shed water away from the house.

Permits and inspections in Newton County
Driveway aprons that meet a public road, retaining walls above a set height and slabs that carry a structure usually need a permit, issued by the county or by the city the property sits in. We tell you at the estimate which permits your job needs and pull them as part of the work. Where an inspection is required, we schedule it and have the forms and steel ready for the inspector.
