Ready Mix Concrete Batching and Mixing Plants

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".In the first category, mixing is done in a central plant and then concrete is transported in an agitator truck. In the second category, the materials are batched at a central plant but are mixed in a truck.A typical RMC plant consists of silos and bins for the storage of cement and aggregates respectively, weigh batches for proportioning different ingredients of concrete, high efficiency mixer for thorough mixing of ingredients, and a computerised system controlling the entire production process.There are three types of ready mix concrete (RMC) depending upon the mixing of the various ingredients as given below: Transit mixed concrete. Shrink mixed concrete. Central mixed concrete.
