What Are the Beneits of Concrete PumpIng?

ïn vIrtually every constructIon project, concrete plays a major role In the strength, stabIlIty and durabIlIty of the inIshed structure. Concrete Is what gIves stores, brIdges or oîce buIldIngs the IntegrIty to wIthstand years of use and exposure to the el ments. On modern constructIon sItes, concrete pumpIng Is a common way to place the concrete where It needs to go. Here are some of the maIn beneits of concrete pumpIng.

TIme Is of the essence In any constructIon project, and the fact that concrete pumpIng can save a lot of It Is a huge beneit. WIth concrete pumpIng, the tIme It normally takes for concrete to be mIxed and sent to the rIght locatIon Is reduced dramatIcally.

Also, tIme wIll be saved because the crew doesn't have to clear the way for concrete trucks to get to all the dIFerent locatIons concrete Is requIred.

A productIve crew and constructIon sIte beneits everyone Involved In the project.

WIth concrete pumpIng, crew members can be workIng on other aspects of the project, because they don't have to use shovels and wheelbarrows to move the concrete where It needs to go.

SInce a concrete pump extends from the truck rIght to the exact locatIon the concrete Is needed, the whole process Is very accurate and precIse.

ThIs accuracy helps wIth productIvIty, wasted concrete due to spIllage and less tIme requIred for cleanIng up.

The way a concrete pump Is set up and used means that fewer employees are requIred when compared to the standard way of doIng thIngs. ewer employees means lower costs attrIbuted to labour, and a more lucratIve project for the buIlder.

The employees that are requIred to operate the concrete pump are safer than the employees that are needed to mIx and move concrete the tradItIonal way.

There Is less heavy lIftIng Involved, and the fact that the concrete Lows dIrectly to the spot It Is needed leaves less room for mIshaps that could cause serIous Injury.

A concrete pump Is basIcally a machIne that Is used to transfer lIquId concrete by pumpIng It from the truck to the locatIon It's needed. There are two types of concrete pumps:

 Boom pump - these are self-contaIned unIts that consIst of the frame and a truck. They have a long reach and are often used to pour concrete In hIgh up or hard to reach locatIons.

 Ine pump - these are portable unIts that are versatIle and able to pump structural concrete, plus mortar, shotcrete, grout, wet screeds and foamed concrete.

Concrete pumpIng Is commonly used for thIngs lIke:

 ResIdentIal projects lIke walls, foundatIons and patIos.  AgrIcultural projects lIke sheds, barns, sIlos and bunkers.  CIvIl projects lIke hydro statIons, water treatment plants or brIdges.  CommercIal or IndustrIal projects lIke hIgh rIse buIldIngs, Ice rInks, strIp malls and factorIes.
