Foam concrete is produced by mixing cement or fly ash, sand, water, and a synthetic aerated foam, which provides stability to the air bubbles, in contrast to air-entrained concrete which is produced incorporating specialized admixtures directly into the concrete mix. Foam concrete offers excellent thermal and acoustic insulation properties ...
It uses a simple Archimedes' screw to mix (clockwise) and to lift the concrete to the delivery chute. Ready-mix concrete (RMC) is concrete that is manufactured in a batch plant, according to each specific job requirement, then delivered to the job site "ready to use". [1] There are two types with the first being the barrel truck or in–transit ...
Abrams' law (also called Abrams' water-cement ratio law) [1] is a concept in civil engineering. The law states the strength of a concrete mix is inversely related to the mass ratio of water to cement. [1] [2] As the water content increases, the strength of concrete decreases. Abrams’ law is a special case of a general rule formulated ...
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.

Cross section of a concrete railway sleeper below a rail. Construction aggregates consist of large chunks of material in a concrete mix, generally a coarse gravel or crushed rocks such as limestone, or granite, along with finer materials such as sand. Cement paste, most commonly made of Portland cement, is the most prevalent kind of concrete ...
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).
Self-consolidating concrete or self-compacting concrete (SCC) [1] is a concrete mix which has a low yield stress, high deformability, good segregation resistance (prevents separation of particles in the mix), and moderate viscosity (necessary to ensure uniform suspension of solid particles during transportation, placement (without external compaction), and thereafter until the concrete sets).
A hot-rolled HSS-box section cut open with a bandsaw, demonstrating residual stress. A hollow structural section (HSS) is a type of metal profile with a hollow cross section. The term is used predominantly in the United States, or other countries which follow US construction or engineering terminology.
