While growers can use the sensors to monitor water in soils for their crops civil engineers can embed the chips in concrete to determine optimal moisture levels as the concrete cures. ne of our goals is to try
This new'thirsty'concrete absorbs 4, 000 litres of water in 60 seconds During the first few weeks of August 2007,
a new type of porous concrete that can absorb up to 4, 000 litres of water in the first 60 seconds,
While permeable concrete has been around for the past 50 years, it's mostly been used under pavements to help with drainage,
Not only can the super-absorbent concrete be used in conjuction with existing concrete-cities can install it so the runoff from regular concrete is fed into the Topmix Permeable
-but it will also be significantly cooler than regular concrete during the hottest months of the year."
so the concrete can only be used in places where temperatures are never likely to dip that low,
and insulated with concrete to prevent any leakage from entering local groundwater. Bacteria that naturally occur within cowsdigestive tracts are added to the manure,
