Do you adjust yeild daily?
« on: October 06, 2009, 11:09:09 PM »
Just started a job using lightweight coarse aggregate. The absorbed moisture changes daily, so much that I adjust the yeild almost
every day now. Is this normal acceptable practice when using lightweight aggregates?

If it is not normal in your area it should be.  Moisture content in most rotary kiln lightweight aggregate is a moving target and mus be properly adjusted for in order to maintain yield, strength, density, and workability.
