Standard Ready-mix Concrete -VS- Site-mix Concrete

  • A centralized concrete batching plant can serve a wide area. Site-mix trucks can serve a larger area including remote locations that standard trucks can not.
  • The plants are located in areas zoned for industrial use, and yet the delivery trucks can service residential districts or inner cities. Site-mix trucks have the same capabilities.
  • Better quality concrete is produced. Site mix can produce higher compression strength with less water then standard batching methods.

Famous quotes containing the words standard and/or concrete:

    “As long as male behavior is taken to be the norm, there can be no serious questioning of male traits and behavior. A norm is by definition a standard for judging; it is not itself subject to judgment.”
    —Myriam Miedzian, U.S. author. Boys Will Be Boys, ch. 1 (1991)

    “There can be no difference anywhere that doesn’t make a difference elsewhere—no difference in abstract truth that doesn’t express itself in a difference in concrete fact and in conduct consequent upon that fact, imposed on somebody, somehow, somewhere, and somewhen.”
    —William James (1842–1910)
