Pumpable Concrete Mixes
Pumpable concrete mixes
Pumpable concrete mixes simplify concrete application by having it applied through a lubricated pumping system, and exits (with minimal friction) through a focussed plug, to generate pressure.
The ideal of ready mix cement for pumping needs to be mixed to facilitate reliable pumping without undermining the integrity of the concrete itself. For this reason, it generally contains air-entraining agents, a higher concentration of sand than other mixes, and a blend of aggregates, concrete mixers.
This in turn ensures that pumpable concrete mixes provide their own sets of advantages to construction tasks:
THE BENEFITS OF PUMPABLE CONCRETE
Significantly lowers the time taken to complete construction
Reduced labour costs for concrete application
Allows concrete to be safely applied to difficult-to-reach areas.
