Ready Mix Concrete

What is RMC?

Ready-Mix Concrete (RMC) is like a chef's recipe for concrete, made in a specialized plant with exact ingredients and measurements. This careful process ensures that each batch is consistent and strong. Using RMC saves time and money on construction sites because it's ready to use and reduces waste.
It's like having a custom-made solution for every building project, making construction faster and more efficient. That's why RMC has become so popular in modern construction - it's reliable, cost-effective, and helps get the job done faster.

Why RMC a Smart Solution for Construction

Ready-Mix Concrete (RMC) is favored in construction for its consistent quality and its efficient delivery reduces on-site labor and material wastage, making it a cost-effective and environmentally friendly choice for construction projects.

Consistent Quality

RMC ensures consistent, high-quality concrete due to its precise mixing process, reducing the risk of defects and enhancing structural integrity.

Time Efficiency

With RMC, construction timelines are streamlined as the concrete is ready to use, eliminating on-site mixing and curing time.

Strength and Durability

RMC’s controlled production process results in concrete with superior strength and durability, ideal for long-lasting structures.

Customized Solutions

RMC can be tailored to meet specific project requirements, ensuring flexibility and adaptability to varying construction needs.

Environmental Sustainability

 Its efficient use of resources and reduced waste make RMC an environmentally responsible choice for construction projects.

Cost-Effective

 RMC minimizes material wastage and labor costs, optimizing resources and reducing overall project expenses.

Our Accurate Quality Control Practices

At our cutting-edge production facility, we ensure strict quality control for our ready-mix concrete, backed by a QA/QC certificate for every batch, guaranteeing consistent quality and performance for your construction needs. 

The Tests We Do

Compression Testing

Utilizing a compression testing machine to verify RMC design mix ratios at 7, 14, and 28 days post-batching.

Sieve Analysis

Employing sieve analysis to verify and control aggregate size.

Slump Testing

Conducting slump tests to ensure optimal concrete flowability in on-site pours.

Casting Cubes

Casting cubes for every batch, both in plant and on-site, to verify concrete strength.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Ready-Mix Concrete (RMC)?

Ready-mix concrete (RMC) is a pre-mixed concrete that is manufactured in a batching plant according to a set recipe and then delivered to a construction site in a ready-to-use condition.

How is the quality of RMC ensured?

The quality of RMC is ensured through rigorous testing and quality control measures at every stage of production, including thorough testing of raw materials, regular equipment calibration, and adherence to strict mixing and pouring procedures.

What are the benefits of using RMC?

Using RMC offers benefits such as consistent quality, reduced on-site labor, faster construction timelines, minimized material wastage, and the ability to customize the mix for specific project requirements.

How is the strength of RMC tested?

The strength of RMC is tested by casting cubes or cylinders from each batch and subjecting them to compression tests at different curing periods, typically 7, 14, and 28 days, to ensure the concrete meets the required strength specifica

How is RMC delivered to the construction site?

RMC is typically delivered to the construction site using transit mixers, which are specially designed trucks that transport the concrete from the batching plant to the construction site while ensuring that it remains in a fresh and workable state.
