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 contractor.
  • Since ready mixed concrete uses bulk cement instead of bagged cement, dust pollution will be minimum and wastage of cement will be reduced.
  • Environment pollution will be minimized due to less production of cement.
  • With better durability of structure, the overall service life increase and there’s saving in life-cycle cost.
  • Minimizing human error and reduction in dependency on labour.
  • Timely deliveries in large as well as small pours.
  • No need for space for storing the materials like coarse and fine aggregate, cement, water and admixtures.
  • No delay due to site based batching plant erection/ dismantling.
  • Reduced noise and air pollution; less consumption of petrol & diesel.

Production Process of Ready Mix Concrete

Ready mix concrete is a mixture of Portland cement, water and aggregates comprising sand and gravel or crushed stone. During the mixing phase the different components come together to produce a uniform mass of concrete. A ready-mix concrete plant consists of silos that contain cement, sand, gravel and storage thanks of additives such as plasticizers, as well as a mixer to blend the components of concrete. These components are gravity fed into the preparation bin. The quality of concrete can be maintained only if the formulation is carefully administered. The water dosage in particular must be very precise and the mixing itself must remain continuous and consistent. To accommodate all of these constraints, the concrete plants have been automated to ensure reliability throughout the manufacturing process using centralized computer. Finally, the concrete prepared in a batch plant is loaded into a mixer truck, also known as a transit mixer, which delivers it to the construct...

Types of Concrete

There are different types of concrete are manufactured today for different needs and applications. The formulas and ingredients vary to suite the condition and preference of various construction designs. Today we are discussing about the different types of concrete that are commonly used. Normal or Regular Concrete The concrete in which common ingredients are aggregate, water, cement is known as normal or regular concrete. It is also called normal weight concrete or normal strength concrete. It has a setting time of thirty to ninety minutes depending upon moisture in atmosphere and the fineness of cement. The development of the strength starts after seven days the common strength values is 10 MPa (1450 psi) to 40 MPa (5800 psi). At about 28 days 75 - 80% of the total strength is attained. Almost at 90 days 95% of the strength is achieved. Its density ranges from 140 pcf to 175 pcf and is strong in compression and weak in tension. High strength concrete It posses compr...
