Northeast construction demands concrete that can withstand temperature swings while maintaining its structural and visual appeal. EcoCrete recently completed a project at Broadview Senior Living in Lower NY State, providing high-quality regular concrete engineered for durability.
The Challenge: Creating and Site Constraints
Creating smooth, wheel-chair accessible, non-glare, non-slip outdoor recreation patios for senior residents.
The Solution: Custom Engineering & Execution
We poured concrete with warm-toned integral pigments and finished them with a light acid wash to expose sand grains for a non-slip, glare-free texture.
- Sub-Base Preparation: Compacted aggregates to prevent frost heaves and slab movement.
- Reinforcement Design: Steel rebar and fiber meshes configured to resist heavy traffic.
- Technical Specifications: Warm beige integral pigment, light acid-etched finish, structural expansion joints, and low-sheen sealer.
A Lasting Concrete Surface
By tailoring the concrete mix and sub-base compaction, the new surface at Broadview Senior Living is ready to handle severe Northeast winter freeze-thaw cycles with minimal maintenance, proving that premium design and heavy-duty engineering can go hand-in-hand.
