Abstract:
Architectural concrete requires a higher aesthetic finish than typical structural cast-in-place work. If structural concrete is expected to meet the aesthetic requirements normally associated with architectural concrete, the more subjective properties must be qualified and bid as architectural requirements. Otherwise, final acceptance of cast-in-place structural concrete might be difficult.
