Quality still needs to be emphasized. This winter, the low temperatures will last for a long time; what concerns us most during construction is the weather forecast. Concrete pouring is carried out at temperatures above zero, while pouring should be avoided when the temperature is below zero. After pouring, since the temperature is usually below zero, plastic sheeting and straw are used for insulation. Construction in sub-zero temperatures to meet deadlines is a cause for concern regarding quality issues.
In addition to what was mentioned above, steam can also be used to maintain the temperature; however, it is best not to carry out work when the temperature is below zero degrees
During welding, some shielding should be used appropriately to prevent the temperature from dropping too low.
During winter construction work, after pouring concrete during the day, be sure to use steam or thatch* for insulation.
