2. Concrete mixer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_mixer

   0.75 m³ (1 cubic yard) cart-away mixing trailer. A variant of standard concrete transportation is the concrete (or, cement) mixing trailer. These small versions of transit-mix trucks are used to supply short loads of concrete. They have a concrete mixing drum with a capacity of between 0.76 and 1.34 cubic metres (1 and 1.75 cu yd).

3. Water–cement ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water–cement_ratio

   A higher ratio gives a too fluid concrete mix resulting in a too porous hardened concrete of poor quality. Often, the concept also refers to the ratio of water to cementitious materials, w/cm. Cementitious materials include cement and supplementary cementitious materials such as ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS), fly ash (FA), silica ...

4. Ready-mix concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ready-mix_concrete

   For a small to medium project, the cost and time of hiring mixing equipment, labour, plus purchase and storage for the ingredients of concrete, added to environmental concerns (cement dust is an airborne health hazard) [10] may simply be not worthwhile when compared to the cost of ready-mixed concrete, where the customer pays for what they use ...

5. Properties of concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_concrete

   The ultimate strength of concrete is influenced by the water-cementitious ratio (w/cm), the design constituents, and the mixing, placement and curing methods employed.All things being equal, concrete with a lower water-cement (cementitious) ratio makes a stronger concrete than that with a higher ratio. [2]

6. Types of concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_concrete

   Regular concrete is the lay term for concrete that is produced by following the mixing instructions that are commonly published on packets of cement, typically using sand or other common material as the aggregate, and often mixed in improvised containers. The ingredients in any particular mix depends on the nature of the application.

7. Flow table test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_table_test

   Flow table with a grip and a hinge, 70 centimetres (28 in) square. In the American version of this test, the table is 10 inches (25 cm) diameter per ASTM C 230.; Abrams cone, open at the top and at the bottom - 30 centimetres (12 in) high, 17 centimetres (6.7 in) top diameter, 25 centimetres (9.8 in) base diameter.

9. Superplasticizer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superplasticizer

   Their addition allows to decrease the water-to-cement ratio of concrete or mortar without negatively affecting the workability of the mixture. It enables the production of self-consolidating concrete and high-performance concrete. The water–cement ratio is the main factor determining the concrete strength and its durability. Superplasticizers ...
