Usually, large concrete placements take place at night because the ambient air temperature is lower, and no sun, both of which help the concrete hydrate with minimal cracking.
This is how large slabs on grade are placed in hot environments like mine is Arizona. Also, concrete bridge decks are placed at night for the same reason.
Placing concrete at night does not eliminate the need for concrete curing methods, however.
As far as cost is concerned, the labor force gets the same wage. I have heard that some workers get a 10% bump in their hourly wage when working over the evening hours.

From an efficiency stand point, day is the best, evening is slightly worse and graveyards are poor. This is specially true if it goes on in an irregular manner.
Indoor versus outdoor can also add to the inefficiency due to problems with lighting.
As previously mentioned, there can also be a wage difference.
Finally if all materials are not on hand, it is hard to get extra supplies at night while you can during the day.

The saline pool at my community gymnasium does have an extremely mild salty flavor to the water. for my section more suitable ideal than what I adventure in a each day chlorine dealt with pool. a lot less annoying on the eyes and epidermis too! Nor does the salt provide you with that similar style of gunky sense on the floor as does ocean salt water, which I dislike and become in contact about. It in basic terms isn't a similar. In-truth that is the finished opposite and feels really strong. I a lot desire the salt water pool to the chlorine.

I'd use a 20% - 30% adder to pay for differential and account for lower productivity.
