Ideal for foundations and underground structures, self-compacting concrete is easy to pour into the required area, without the need for vibrators or mechanical compaction. During the creation process, chemicals – called superplasticisers – are added to the mix for a higher flow rate, allowing the concrete to level off and self-compact.
What are the Benefits of Self-Compacting Concrete?
With standard concrete, there can be a risk that it will segregate, which causes it to lose strength and structural integrity. A quality self-compacting concrete mix, however, will not segregate, meaning it meets the necessary performance requirements. Benefits of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) include:
- Improved integrity
- Uniform appearance
- Superior, long-lasting finish
- Ensures project deadlines are met
- High quality strength
- Allows for easy pumping
Partnering a nationwide service with a personal, flexible approach, The Concrete Network is always on hand to provide the finest quality self-compacting concrete to a variety of different projects.
