Ready Mix Concrete vs Site Mixed Concrete

What is needed to build a house or a hotel or any piece of construction work?  Sand? bricks? Rocks? Well, the first thing that you would need is imagination. Yes! First, you need to have an idea of your house or anything that you want to build. Don’t be afraid to dream. Hindustan is here! You dream it, we make it! How? It is just knowledge. We know what is appropriate for your project. This is how we become the most trustable construction company in Ahmedabad. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a house or a bridge, whether it’s a small or a big project. The value that we put is always the same and will always be. So what’s the next step after dreaming? It is concrete. The entire durability of your construction work depends on concrete. The stronger the concrete is, the more durable the project is. And this is what we stand for, the best RMC plant in Ahmedabad.

As we all know, concrete is and has always been the most important part of the construction. The quality of the concrete determines the strength and life of the construction work. When we talk about concrete, we need to keep in mind that concrete is not just one aspect of construction. It is a mixture of several ingredients and those ingredients determine the quality of the concrete. And being the best construction company in Ahmedabad, we don’t compromise in quality.

Ready-mix concrete is a construction plant-based concrete, it is something that we, the best RMC plant in Ahmedabad excel at. It means that this type of concrete is designed and mixed at the plant. They are transported to the construction site for usage. Based on transportation, Ready mix concrete can be divided into two parts:

  1. Transit mix concrete:- In this process, the concrete is mixed inside the truck mixer as it reaches the construction site.
  2. Shrink mix concrete:- In this process, the concrete is partially mixed at the plant before arriving at the construction site and partially after reaching the construction site right before placing it.

Both of the processes come with their benefits. In the first process, the concrete is being mixed in the truck. Now the question arises why? Well, we all have heard of concrete getting rigid. So this process prevents the concrete from getting hard early on so that it can be used without any haste.

The second process allows more concrete to be transported to the construction site in less time, making the work faster. Faster work is the key requirement of large construction projects, something that makes us the fastest growing construction company in Ahmedabad, and ready-mix concrete is the perfect match for this.

As the name suggests, site mixed concrete is the concrete that is prepared at the construction site. All the ingredients are mixed in predetermined ratios to prepare the concrete. The mixing of the ingredients is meticulous work, a minor error can affect the strength of the concrete. Site mixed concrete preparation is of two types:- 1) hand-mixed concrete 2) machine mixed concrete.

In the first process, the ingredients that are needed to prepare the concrete are mixed in small sections by site workers. The chances of errors are high in this process. And this process happens to be much slower.

In the second process, a small mixing truck is placed at the construction site. The chances of errors are lesser and it is faster than the hand mix process.

Why you should always choose Hindustan Ready Mix concrete oversite mixed concrete?

  • The major concern about construction works is a paucity of time. Ready-mix concrete is faster, something that we are acknowledged for. The reason behind our fast completion of the projects ultimately making us the fastest growing construction company in Ahmedabad and the most trustable RMC plant in Ahmedabad is nothing but advanced technology. Because ready mix concrete is mixed in the truck on its way, it saves a lot of time without compromising on the quality. Whereas site mixed concrete consumes a lot of time because the mixing process requires human labor. The machine can also do that but it would be only applicable for a smaller amount which makes the speed slower.
  • In all these years of growth, we have realized that people step back when there is a need to use RMC and always end up substituting it. The reason behind it is that Ready-mix concrete is expensive. Well, we all are aware of the fact that to have a quality product, we need to spend a good amount of money. But Hindustan, being the best RMC plant in Ahmedabad, takes care of each and every client that partners with us. We, the most trustable RMC company in Ahmedabad, provide you with products that are suitable for you and your project so that you don’t have to spend any extra money. As site mixed concrete is prepared at the construction site, you will have to incur a cost for each ingredient that is needed to prepare the concrete.
  • A good quality concrete depends on a lot of things such as quality of the ingredients, dry-wet ratio, temperature, and many more. Hindustan RMC has a special team that takes care of all these factors and the ratios are all machine-based which reduces the possibility of errors, unlike site mixed concrete where all these above-mentioned tasks are done by humans which increases the chances of errors which can affect the quality of the concrete.
  •  The problem occurs when a particular work of construction disrupts the surroundings. Hindustan, being the best construction company in Ahmedabad does its work swiftly and peacefully. While working with Hindustan RMC, you would not have to spend a lot of space. Sufficient space for the mixing truck is enough. This is what makes us the best RMC Plant In Ahmedabad. Site mixed concrete not only requires space for the mixing but also extra storing space for the raw materials which may cause hiccups.
  • Nowadays every work should be done keeping in mind that it does not have a deleterious effect on the environment.  This is the most important point about switching to Hindustan RMC, the best RMC plant in Ahmedabad. The preparation of the concrete is done within our plant and all the precautions are taken to prevent pollution which makes us the best construction company in Ahmedabad. In the preparation of the site mixed concrete, there are high chances of pollution because while mixing emission of dust can happen. Besides that site mixed concrete can cause wastage of products such as water wastage, cement wastage.
