Three Types Of Concrete To Know About!

Cement is an important material in our lives, yet we don’t know much about it. What we do know is that its responsible for helping society build urban structures and support our way of life, making it better. It is used extensively in constructing buildings, parking garages, office buildings, roads, bridges, dams and also to support kerbs, drains and pipes. The cement is mixed with other ingredients including crushed stone, sand, rocks, gravel and water. The equipment that combines the different ingredients to create concrete is called a concrete plant.

Using Concrete to Support Soil Stabilisation

Soil stabilisation involves pulverising, trimming, compacting and moisture conditioning weak soil by mixing various binders with it such as lime, cement and salt (sodium chloride). This improves its characteristics for construction projects with a more favourable moisture content, strength, density, shrink/swell characteristics, permeability and plasticity index. Soil stabilisation is mainly used to upgrade poor quality clay soils to prevent concrete from cracking as well as providing appropriate subgrade support for adequate concrete slab performance. Soil stabilisation of clay material increases hardness by up to ten times, helping to establish a [...]
