yeah, but that doesnt mean much. the hoover damn is still drying.

The Hoover Dam concrete would cure in 125 years by conventional or natural methods. Crews, however, used some innovative engineering methods to hasten the process.

Nearly 600 miles of steel pipes woven through the concrete blocks significantly reduced the chemical heat from the setting for the concrete. Crews relied on 1,000-pound blocks of ice produced daily at the site’s ammonia-refrigeration plant.

Would have doesn't mean is. Source

Fun fact, concrete actually never stops curing, so I don’t know why they claim they could speed it up. Concrete has to set, dry and cure. You can speed up the first two, but not the last. You can make it reach design spec in say 7 days instead of 28, but it never stops curing.

Opinion: If it never stops curing, then maybe we should stop using that term.

[–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

What other term would we use? Lost of items never fully “cure” I’m struggling to think of something that does. Paint doesn’t, nail polish doesn’t.

It’s why it has to dry and set first. Concrete is completely usable after it’s set, it just gets stronger as it cures.

Why do you think paint says not to wash the wall for a month after, the paint still has to cure after drying and setting.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'm saying, come up with another term.

[–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world -1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Or you just didn’t know what the term meant and assumed and now for some odd reason want multiple industries to change what they’ve used for decades….?

Sure they’ll get right on that, or you could read a dictionary, there’s that option too.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Or we could stop pedantic arguments like this by having a separate name for the two similar but different chemical reactions.

[–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 0 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

…. Cure and set, I literally just explained that to you…. Yet you still want cure changed?

And for what it’s worth, I gave a fun fact, and you started being the “pedantic” one after that since you misunderstood, so go look in a mirror? lmfao.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

And you were the one to get your feathers ruffled by my opinion that you could have just left alone.

So pedant, shall we continue?

[–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

…. Your opinion was

If it never stops curing, then maybe we should stop using that term.

So I explained that’s why we use “set” and now apparently I’m pedantic for pointing out we have those terms and have zero need to do that. That ruffled your feathers.

Imma just block you.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 0 points 9 months ago

And my opinion wasn't about set and cure.

It was about materials that have a point where they finish curing and the ones that continue to cure. Because as YOU state there are materials in both categories.
