Typed out please In a short and simple response comment on this persons answer for masonry work Additives combined with concrete to achieve certain properties are called what? Name a few that would benefit the Engineer and Customer.
Response - Additives to concrete are utilized to provide certain benefits when placing concrete. These additives called \"Admixtures\" can be used to speed up the curing process, slow down the curing process, or help in working with concrete during cold temperatures. Retarders can be added to concrete to slow down curing. Accelerators can be used to speed up the curing. The most advanced additive is the Air-entrainment agent which gives mason the ability to work with concrete in colder months.

Solution
The response of the person is good. He/she explained the admixtures and their applications pretty well and also explained accelators, retarders and air entertainment in a simple straight forward fashion.Overall i would say that the answer is satisfactory.
I will like to add \"PLASTICIZERS\" in the list of admixtures that would benefit the engineer and customer. Plasticizers are water reducing admixtures and are added to the concrete mix for making it more plastic without any further addition of water. In other words, they reduce the quantity of water required to make concrete mixture of better plasticity.
