While there are many options when it comes to pouring concrete on your property, ready-mix concrete is tough to beat in many areas. But, when working with foundations, ready-mix concrete is the top choice for several reasons.
One of the benefits of ready-mix concrete is that it’s mixed in a controlled environment. This ensures a uniform mix with the right amount of cement, aggregate, and water. The right mix in a controlled environment will result in predictable strength and stability in your foundation.
When mixing on-site, there’s room for all types of mistakes to happen. When you get ready-mix you eliminate the risk of human error. These errors can happen anytime while measuring or mixing ingredients. Ready-mix is a more reliable concrete mix.
As a supplier of ready-mix concrete, we know the procedures required to monitor the consistency and strength of the concrete mix. In a controlled environment, ready-mix suppliers identify and address any potential issues before they deliver the concrete.
Ready-mix concrete allows you to quickly pour directly on-site. This reduces the time the concrete mix is exposed to weather conditions, which may minimize issues related to curing, like shrinkage cracking.
Concrete that’s properly mixed and compacted like ready-mix concrete will resist water infiltration. This prevents potential foundation problems that can arise from moisture damage.
When concrete is mixed with a consistent design and proper curing practices, those steps minimize the risk of cracks due to shrinkage, which is a common issue found in foundations.
Ready-mix concrete has a uniform load-bearing capacity. This consistency in ready-mix concrete can help prevent uneven settling of the foundation.
Ready-mix concrete has a high compressive strength, which ensures the foundation will withstand the building’s weight. This high compressive strength also helps the foundation to resist structural failures.
