Push the clip over the cable (it should be a tight fit) and hammer the nail into the wall or other surface. Place a clip approximately every 60 cm if the cable runs on a vertical or overhead surface. On horizontal surfaces a clip every 1 to 2,5 metres will suffice. For cable thicker than 16 mm outside diameter it is better to use saddles.
New concrete requires special treatment... New concrete must cure a minimum of 28 days before either tiling or putting a dressing onto the new concrete. There are two reasons for this: 1) As the concrete cures, drying and shrinkage cracks could occur. These cracks may eventually show up in tile or dressing applied before the 28 day curing period.
By Concrete Construction Staff. Q: We placed a concrete slab for an exterior multipurpose game court. How long do we have to wait before painting basketball-court lines? A: Because many different paint types are available for concrete surfaces, you should follow the instructions provided by the paint manufacturer. Most literature recommends a 28-day cure, but it's not clear whether that means a 28-day drying period after the concrete has been moist cured, or a 28-day wait after the concrete has been placed. The Portland Cement Association (Ref. 1) recommends waiting 28 days to 6 months, depending on surface conditions and the coatings used on the surface.
