According to ACI the concrete pressure is calculated according to
the cross-section form, differentiating between ranges of concreting speed. The calculations include: the cross section forms the pour rates the concrete temperature and the pour height The raw weight of the concrete is taken to be 2400 kg/m3. For columns the concrete pressure is taken to be:785Vb pb 7.19 17.78 T The limits of concrete pressure for columns are defined as follows: p 28.74kN / m 2 min
