What Is A Concrete Pump?
A concrete pump is a machine usually on a vehicle that is used for transferring wet ready mix concrete or liquid screed to the lay site. In total there are two different types of concrete pumps:
Boom Pumps – A boom pump uses a robotic arm to deliver ready mix concrete and screed accurately. They are most popularly used on construction sites as they have the ability to pump large volumes of concrete quickly and effectively.
Boomless Pump – A boomless pump does not have a robotic arm like the larger boom pumps do. Instead, boomless pipes rely on laying pipes from the vehicle to the lay site.
Ready Mix FAQs
Ready-mix concrete is a form of concrete that is pre-mixed in a batch plant to meet a client’s specifications so that the concrete is readily available to be delivered straight to the construction project for use right away. Customer specifications include grade, amount and type of concrete. Spot On Concrete produces the finest quality of concrete and will only charge for the amount of concrete you have required.
To workout out how much concrete you will need you can use our free ready mix concrete calculator available on our website. When calculating the amount of concrete you will require, we advise that you add an extra 5 to 10% of your estimated total to allow for possible errors, such as spillage, over-excavation or uneven surfaces.
One of the key differences between ready mix concrete and standard concrete is that ready mixed concrete is pre-mixed off-site in a batch plant delivered to a site in specialist concrete mixer trucks. Standard concrete on the other hand, will have to be mixed on-site.
Ready-mix is very versatile in its uses due to its durability, delivery convenience and reduced wastage capabilities, so ready-mix concrete is used in a number of different applications. Common applications include civil engineering, domestic projects, roads, walls, bridges, structural foundations, driveways and also footpaths.
Some of the key benefits of ready mix concrete include:
- Quality and Precise concrete – Because ready mix is mixed to exact specifications in a batch plant, the process will be adhered to professional regulations and will be ensured to be of high quality. The amount of concrete will be much more accurate than the standard form of on-site concrete mixing and you will be less likely to waste concrete, meaning you could even save money.
- Time-efficient – Delivery of ready mix concrete sent straight to your construction site can end up saving you hours of labour so is economically beneficial and more productive, than having workers to spend time mixing the concrete on site.
- Eco-friendly – Ready-mix concrete can actually be more eco friendly than standard mixing on site because of the reduction in wastage due to ready mix concrete being much more precise and accurate.
