Delivery of concrete to the construction site is carried out with the help of concrete mixers. It is important to think over each stage of work in advance, providing the necessary conditions for the technique.
1 Prepare a parking lot
Requirements for the discharge site:- solid coating;
- minimum dimensions - 6 x 8 m;
- bias - no more than 5%;
- In the unloading zone there should be no power lines, as well as trees that impede work.
2 Think the route
The concrete mixer route should be thought out in advance, given all the obstacles that can meet on the way. If you need to overcome the arches or entry with height limitations, dimensions or load, you need to inform the company to operator. In this case, the technique will be selected with the most convenient for transportation with indicators.
It is also important to objectively evaluate the quality of the road surface: if the technique obesomes in the mud, there will be a lot of problems. It is much easier and more profitable to calculate everything in advance.
| Volume, m3) | Height (m) | Width (m) | Length (m) | Number of axes | Machine Machine (T) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| four | 3,4. | 2.5 | 7.35 | 2. | 10 |
| five | 3.5 | 2.5 | 7.4-8 | 3. | 12 |
| 6. | 3.6 | 2.5 | 7.8-8.5 | 3. | 11.9-13.5 |
| 7. | 3.6-3,75 | 2.5 | 8.2-8.8. | 3. | 12.2-13.9 |
| eight | 3.7-3,85 | 2.5 | 8.4-9 | 3. | 12.8-15 |
| nine | 3.7-3,95 | 2.5-2.55 | 8.5-9,2 | 3. | 13-15 |
| 10 | 3.8-4 | 2,55 | 9.3-9.45 | four | 15.3-17,2 |
| eleven | 3,78. | 2,55 | 9,78. | four | 16.6 |
| 12 | 3.82-3,95 | 2,55 | 9.94-10,36 | four | 16,7-19 |
Another important point that needs to be considered - the peculiarities of the road in a particular area. For concosses, both for cargo machinery can be prohibits for motion for any roads.
Look for concrete manufacturers as close as possible to the construction site, since long-term transportation can adversely affect the quality of concrete.
3 Take care of the car wash
After unloading the concrete mixer must be rinsed. To do this, you will need not so much water, but together with it, after cleaning, part of the concrete will fall out, which will later grab, spoiling the landscape. About where to merge liquid, the customer must be taken care of in advance.
