The Advantages of Ready Mix Concrete

  Ready-mix concrete is concrete that is manufactured in a factory or batching plant, according to a set recipe, and then delivered to a work site by truck mounted in–transit mixers. This results in a precise mixture, allowing specialty concrete mixtures to be developed and implemented on construction sites. Ready-mix concrete is preferred over on-site concrete mixing because of the precision of the mixture and reduced work site confusion.   The advantages of ready mix concrete are the following. Quality assured - It is produced under controlled conditions using consistent quality of raw material. High speed of construction- Speed of construction will be fast if ReadyMix Concrete is used. Reduction in cement consumption -The consumption of cement will be reduced by 10 – 12 % due to better handling and proper mixing. Versatility in uses and methods of placing - The mix design of the concrete can be tailor made to suit the placing methods of the...
