When working with concrete, hydrostatic pressure plays a big role. But what is it, and why is it so important to factor in? Hydrostatic pressure (water=hydro, static=resting) is the level of pressure that standing water creates. This pressure can press onto the walls of its container, whatever that may be. Concrete, although it seems very […]
What is Hydrostatic Pressure?
When working with concrete, hydrostatic pressure plays a big role. But what is hydrostatic pressure? Hydrostatic pressure (water=hydro, static=resting) is the level of pressure that standing water creates. This pressure can press onto the walls of its container, whatever that may be. Concrete, although it seems very solid when dry, is susceptible to moisture and […]
